Screening Filters
Industry: ['Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment']
- Purpose: To narrow down the search to companies operating specifically in the semiconductor and semiconductor equipment industry.
- Rationale: The user explicitly requested a list of semiconductor companies. By applying this filter, the screener ensures that only companies within this industry are included in the results, eliminating irrelevant sectors.
Weekly Average Turnover: {'min': '1000000'}
- Purpose: To include only companies with a minimum weekly average turnover of $1,000,000.
- Rationale: A higher turnover indicates that the stock is actively traded, which is often a sign of liquidity and investor interest. This ensures that the results focus on prominent semiconductor companies with significant market activity, aligning with the user's request for "top" companies.
EPS (Earnings Per Share) TTM: {'min': '0'}
- Purpose: To filter out companies with negative earnings per share (EPS) over the trailing twelve months (TTM).
- Rationale: Positive EPS indicates that the company is profitable, which is a key metric for identifying financially stable and successful companies. Including this filter ensures that the results focus on semiconductor companies that are generating profits, which is likely to align with the user's interest in "top" companies.
Why Results Match:
- The industry filter ensures that only semiconductor companies are included, directly addressing the user's request for companies in this specific sector.
- The weekly average turnover filter prioritizes companies with significant trading activity, which is a common characteristic of leading or "top" companies in any industry.
- The EPS filter ensures that only profitable companies are included, further refining the results to highlight financially strong semiconductor companies.
By combining these filters, the screener effectively identifies the "top 20 semiconductor companies" based on industry relevance, market activity, and financial performance.
