STOCK SCREENS & TOOLS
PAID STOCK SCREEN SERVICE
Stockopedia is the screening service I used to run screens for The Investor's Solution book. It has a very wide variety of metrics to screen with, spanning multiple global markets. It also provides a summary of company performance for the last 6 years and a range of company health metrics.
For the book, I created a screen including the fields below (also shown in an image below).
- Return on Equity (ROE) (5y average)
- Return on Equity (ROE) (2 years ago)
- Return on Equity (ROE) (last year)
- Price to Book (P/B) ratio
- Dividend Payout Ratio
- Market Capitalisation
- Sales CAGR 5 years
- Sales CAGR 3 years
- Earnings per share CAGR (5y average)
- Earnings per share CAGR (3y average)
- Net Profit Margin (5 year average)
- Net Profit Margin (1 year ago)
- Current Ratio (last year)
- Financial Leverage (last year)
- Price CAGR (if desired)
You can use my Refer a Friend link below to get 2 weeks free and a 10% lifetime discount on your subscription.
In line with the philosophy of openness and transparency reflected in The Investor's Solution book, I receive a 10% discount on my own subscription when you sign up, but after only 10 sign ups my subscription is effectively free and there's nothing more I gain over the lifetime of my subscription. I recommend Stockopedia, not as a result of this incentive, but because it is currently the best solution out there for enabling investors to screen for investment opportunities.
