Portfolio Grader 500

Incredibly powerful stock analysis tool for individual investors

pg500-intro1

The Portfolio Grader 500 is a powerful stock analysis tool curated by renowned growth investor Louis Navellier. Initially available in static PDF format, it features the top 250 and bottom 250 stocks in the market. As the demand surged for an online version, I led the website design project to convert the PDF into an interactive website.

Easy and Simple

In contrast to the PDF report, the Portfolio Grader 500 website offers a comprehensive list of all 500 stocks. Users can effortlessly access individual stock details by clicking on any stock name or ticker from the lists. Additionally, a search bar has been integrated into the homepage, enabling users to search for specific ticker symbols, company names, or sectors/industries. Our goal is to streamline the stock-finding process, making it intuitive and efficient for users.

Stock Reports

Critical elements of the stock report have been preserved and enhanced for improved usability. The layout has been reorganized into easily digestible sections, while the stock performance chart is now dynamic, allowing users to customize it according to their preferences. Refinements to the color palette, typography, and whitespace create a modern and clean layout, facilitating seamless navigation for users.
