What the score means. Each score rates how good or bad the news was for the company, from −10 (clearly bad) to +10 (clearly good). 0 is neutral, and anything beyond ±6 is strong and rare. It rates the coverage, not the share price.
Why it scored this way
Coverage mainly concerned a tokenised share class created by Aviva Investors for its sterling liquidity fund, issued via the XRP Ledger with £50 million of seed money and Ripple taking part. Smaller negatives were the Canadian class action settlement and growing contractor losses.
What drove it
- tokenised fund launch
- XRP Ledger and Ripple tie-up
- Canadian lawsuit settlement
