Screening Filters
Price: 0.10 ≤ Price ≤ 2.00
- Purpose: Limit results to low-priced stocks trading under $2, while excluding extremely illiquid micro-penny names.
- Rationale:
- Your request was specifically for “stocks under $2,” so setting the maximum price at $2 directly implements that requirement.
- The minimum price of $0.10 is a practical safeguard: prices far below $0.10 often indicate extremely illiquid or distressed securities, data errors, or instruments that don’t trade in a regular, reliable way. This helps keep the results more investable and relevant.
Annual Revenue YoY Growth ≥ 5%
- Purpose: Ensure the companies are actually growing their top line (sales).
- Rationale:
- You asked for stocks “with growth.” One of the most straightforward measures of corporate growth is revenue growth.
- A minimum 5% year-over-year (YoY) revenue increase makes sure we’re not including flat or shrinking businesses. The bar isn’t unrealistically high, but it does filter out companies whose sales are stagnating or declining.
Annual EPS YoY Growth ≥ 5%
- Purpose: Capture growth in profitability per share, not only in sales.
- Rationale:
- A company can grow revenue while its profits stagnate or fall. To align more fully with the idea of “growth,” we look at earnings per share (EPS) growth as well.
- Setting EPS YoY growth ≥ 5% helps find companies that are not only selling more, but also becoming more profitable on a per-share basis, which is typically more relevant for shareholders.
Why Results Match Your Request
- Your key constraint “under $2” is handled directly by the price ≤ $2 filter.
- Your desire for “growth” is addressed by requiring positive and meaningful YoY growth in both revenue and EPS (≥ 5%), which together capture growth in both sales and earnings.
These filters therefore match your request well: they search for sub-$2 stocks that are growing in both size (revenue) and profitability (EPS), while avoiding the very lowest-priced, often problematic tickers below $0.10.
