About Beneish M Score
The Beneish M Score helps to uncover companies who are likely to be manipulating their reported earnings. Companies with a higher score are more likely to be manipulators. This is a probabilistic model, so it will not detect manipulators with 100% accuracy.
The best cut-off point depends on the costs mistakenly classifying in one of two ways:
1) Classifying firm that is manipulating earnings as a non-manipulator (Type I error), and
2) Classifying a firm as a manipulator when it actually was not manipulating (Type II Error).
Here are optimal cut-offs according to Beneish, presented as the score followed by the cost of Type I error relative to cost of Type II error):
M Score HTML Table:
| Score | Relative Error Costs (Type I:Type II) |
|---|---|
| M Score > -1.49 | (10:1) | M Score > -1.78 | (20:1) | M Score > -1.89 | (40+:1) |
Beneish excluded financial institutions from his sample when calculating the M-Score, so extreme care should be taken when looking at M-Scores of financial firms - their business models are different from the manufacturing and other service firms that Beneish used in his study.

@prostocktrader $FOSL not as well-managed as $MOV; you may make money but I'd buy into any pullback on $MOV instead

I started a position in $FOSL @73.37. I'm just getting my feet with investing so my query is should I bail because it's steadily dropping?

$FOSL again if this level breaks at 69.50 lots of stops are going to trigger and it will be extremely ugly, scary it cant muster a bounce

Buying small $FOSL (71.95); looking for upside with $MOV earning. Stop under yesterday's lows. Citigroup out positive as well on $FOSL.
