ETREntergy
Is it safe?
Solid, nothing alarming: steady price behavior, but heavy debt (BB).
Mixed, watch the balance sheet Altman Z-score, a bankruptcy-risk model from five balance-sheet ratios.
Insiders were net sellers (-$2.5M, 90 days to Oct 8, 2026), selling is often routine.
Moderately leveraged. A rule of thumb on leverage, not a credit rating.
Relatively steady, low volatility. Worst drawdown -42% · now 12% below its 52-week high.
Unless marked, from SEC EDGAR, as of Dec 31, 2025.

Percentile against every name Ryufin tracks. Higher is better; the tick marks the middle of the market. Context, not one of the checks above.
Where this answer is blind. Altman sits structurally low for utilities and pipelines; Beneish runs high for fast growers, since sales growth alone lifts it; banks and REITs are excluded.
