Rankings

Method: each night we snapshot the Top N list. Entry = close on selection day (or next session ≤5d). Forward returns use trading days from price_history (+5d ≈ 1 week, +21d ≈ 1 month, +63d ≈ 3 months). Portfolio return = equal-weight average of names with prices that day. Benchmark = SPY over the same windows.
