Note on “most bullish in 2026”
No screen can guarantee which single ticker will be “the most bullish” for an entire year. What the filters are doing instead is finding stocks with a combination of factors that historically align with higher bullish probability: strong trend, positive analyst sentiment, and upside vs. current price.
Screening Filters
market_cap: { min: 5,000,000,000 } & market_cap_category: ['large', 'mid']
- Purpose: Focus on mid- and large-cap companies (≥ $5B market cap).
- Rationale:
- Larger companies are typically more liquid and less prone to extreme manipulation, so their “bullish” signals tend to be more reliable.
- When asking “most bullish in 2026,” it’s sensible to start with substantial businesses that can actually sustain a strong multi‑month/annual trend, rather than tiny speculative names.
moving_average_relationship: ['PriceAboveMA200']
- Purpose: Require the stock price to be above its 200‑day moving average.
- Rationale:
- Price > 200‑day MA is a classic definition of a long‑term uptrend.
- For a “most bullish” candidate, you generally want a stock already in a confirmed uptrend rather than one still below its long-term average (which could be in a downtrend or recovery phase).
one_month_rise_prob: { min: 60 }
- Purpose: Only include stocks with at least a 60% model-estimated probability of rising over the next month.
- Rationale:
- This is a quantitative way to bias the screen toward statistically bullish setups in the near term.
- While your question is about 2026 as a whole, a strong short‑term rise probability often coincides with favorable momentum and conditions that can persist.
analyst_consensus: ['Strong Buy']
- Purpose: Restrict results to stocks with a “Strong Buy” consensus from covering analysts.
- Rationale:
- “Strong Buy” means the majority of professional analysts are not just positive, but very optimistic on the stock’s future performance (earnings growth, catalysts, valuation upside).
- Combining trend strength with strong Street sentiment is a way to approximate “most bullish” from both technical and fundamental perspectives.
target_price_upside_potential: ['MoreAbovePrice']
- Purpose: Filter for stocks where the consensus target price is meaningfully above the current market price.
- Rationale:
- If analysts think fair value is well above today’s price, that implies expected upside from here.
- For a “most bullish” candidate, you want both: the market already trending up and analysts still seeing room to run.
Why These Results Match Your Question
- They capture strong bullish trend (PriceAboveMA200).
- They favor near-term upside probability (≥60% 1‑month rise probability), which often aligns with ongoing positive momentum.
- They demand very positive analyst sentiment and upside vs. current price (Strong Buy + target above price), reflecting the view that fundamentals and future prospects support further gains.
- They limit to mid/large caps, focusing on stocks where bullish signals are more likely to be grounded in business strength rather than illiquid speculation.
Together, these filters don’t promise the single best performer of 2026, but they systematically narrow the universe to stocks that check multiple boxes for being among the most bullish candidates based on trend, probability, and professional expectations.
