Verdicts that came true.
Anyone can be right after the filing. This page lists the calls I made before it, with the date of the call and the date of the filing that confirmed it.
What goes on this page. A company I rated Watch or Warning in the Morning Brief, in a dated edition that is still online, which later reached a court: a notice to appoint administrators, a restructuring or a bankruptcy. The call has to come first.
What does not. A company that was already in court the first time it appeared. A call made after the news. Warning means several serious signs at once, not a prediction of failure, and many companies on it recover; every edition stays in the archive, so you can read the calls that did not come true as well.
