Warning!
The file download this weekend was bad. As has happened a few times in the past, the database seemed to be filled with numbers from many months ago.
I waited until after the market close today and updated the database on-line. The closing stock prices now seem to be okay, based on my small sample. I can't tell if other fields, such as Total Return 26-weeks, or Total Return 1-year, or anything else for that matter is current and correct.
Perhaps someone who has the right data and tools can chime in on the validity of the current database.
So if you're counting on these rankings to make portfolio trades, maybe it's best to put that off till next week.

The rankings will appear in my response to this post.
