IHS Markit (Nasdaq: INFO), a world leader in critical information, analytics and solutions, today announced the launch of a Score report that provides investors and others with a new metric based on hard-to-measure factors such as credit worthiness, short selling and ETF activity. The Score report is available in the news feed for select publicly traded companies on Yahoo! Finance .

The report gives access to a range of proprietary financial datasets produced by IHS Markit, including CDS pricing, short interest data, ETF flows and sector level Purchasing Managers Index data.  In addition to metrics from each dataset, the Score also provides a consolidated indicator for a stock through an overall rating from one to 100.

“The new Score reports highlight the breadth of capital markets data we offer and is the first time we have consolidated this many datasets into one tool for investors,” said Adam Kansler, executive vice president of Financial Markets at IHS Markit. “Advanced web technology from Markit Digital distributes the Scores to Yahoo!, which has the reach to expose this innovative new metric to a broad audience.”
