What happened to the companies that got cut from the index?

Noticed the list went from a lot of companies down to 20 this cycle. Were the ones that disappeared dropped for performing badly, or is this just a scope change?

Asking because a few of them are still very much selling, and I would not want people assuming a company is fine just because it is no longer listed as bad.

Scope change, not a verdict. We narrowed to companies we hold enough samples on to say something defensible. A company not appearing in the index means we do not currently have sufficient evidence on it, which is not the same as a clean bill of health. That distinction matters and you are right to draw it.

Worth pinning that answer somewhere permanent. Absence of a bad score is not a good score.

Cascade is still listed though, and they failed. Glad the failures stayed rather than the list quietly being trimmed to companies that look good.
