Don't know where to ask these general, orientational questions, so maybe someone would be kind enough to give me a little direction.

Questions for example: The difference between Leading Stocks and Best Rated Stocks. Moreover, what is the total stock rating and why aren't leading stocks top rated?

I have looked all over the forum and in the book but I can't find answers to these simple questions. I'm sorry but I need to ask for help from somebody. Any feedback would be much appreciated. You can simply point me in the right direction, albeit, something a little better that somewhere in the archives of this site.
