Hi, just a small question I haven’t found a direct answer to.

I understand that each week’s live era has approximately 5000 obfuscated stocks (exact number varies, correct me if I’m wrong).

My question is, are these stocks listed in the live era in the same order every week, or is this also jumbled every week?

Thanks for clarification in advance. Happy modeling!

They are not in the same order every week, they are jumbled, as you said.
