Methodology: Step 1 — Quality Gate: Only companies with a Buffett Score ≥ 3/5 enter the pool. Step 2 — Tier: sequential filtering on two independent dimensions, not a weighted sum. Quality (Buffett Score ≥ 4/5) and Momentum (Total Score ≥ 8/15) are each evaluated on their own — a strong score on one never substitutes for a weak score on the other — giving four tiers: Quality + Momentum / Quality only / Momentum only / Neither. QM_Score (normalized: (Buffett/5)×10 + (Momentum/15)×10, out of 20) is shown and used only to rank/sort within a tier; it does not determine the tier. Computed only for stocks that already passed the quality gate, so its real range here is ~6-20, not 0-20. Step 3 — Conviction Badge: B4 (RE growing 10yr) + B5 (Buybacks) + Near 52W High → ✓ badge shown alongside the tier.
