Two to four at a time, row by row.

Averages hide the trade-off. Put markets beside each other and the shape of the choice shows up: where one wins on spending power it often gives ground on risk, and the pillars underneath say why.

On winners: the marked cell is the better reading for that row only — not a verdict on the market. Rows where a lower number wins are labelled, so a low risk score is read as the strength it is rather than a weakness.
