Screening Filters
market_cap_category = mid, large, mega
- Purpose: Focus on established semiconductor names with meaningful market presence and liquidity.
- Rationale: MU and MRVL are large, widely followed companies. Limiting the screen to mid/large/mega caps helps find stocks with a similar scale and trading profile, rather than smaller, more speculative names.
monthly_average_dollar_volume >= 10,000,000
- Purpose: Ensure the stocks are liquid and actively traded.
- Rationale: Technical trend comparisons are more meaningful in liquid names because price action is cleaner and easier to trade. MU and MRVL both tend to have strong liquidity, so this filter helps find comparable stocks.
moving_average_relationship = PriceAboveMA5, PriceAboveMA20, PriceAboveMA200
- Purpose: Select stocks that are in a strong uptrend across short-, medium-, and long-term timeframes.
- Rationale: MU and MRVL were being discussed as stocks with bullish technical momentum. A stock trading above its 5-day, 20-day, and 200-day moving averages is typically showing the same kind of trend alignment and strength.
ema_5 > 0, ema_10 > 0, ema_20 > 0, ema_200 > 0
- Purpose: Confirm positive EMA conditions across multiple time horizons.
- Rationale: These filters reinforce that the trend is not just a temporary bounce, but supported by momentum at several levels. That is consistent with the kind of strong trend behavior seen in MU and MRVL.
month_price_change_pct >= 0
- Purpose: Require the stock to be flat or positive over the last month.
- Rationale: This helps exclude names that are still in a downtrend. Since the user asked for stocks similar in trend to MU and MRVL, we want stocks that have at least stopped falling and preferably are trending upward.
quarter_price_change_pct >= 0
- Purpose: Screen for positive performance over the last quarter.
- Rationale: This adds an intermediate-term momentum check. MU and MRVL-style setups usually have broader trend strength, not just one good trading session or one-week rally.
industry = Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment
- Purpose: Keep the search within the same industry group.
- Rationale: MU and MRVL are semiconductor-related companies, so this filter is essential for finding peers that are most likely to move in similar ways based on the same sector dynamics, earnings cycle, AI demand, and chip sentiment.
themes = AI Beneficiary, Semiconductor Equipment & Materials
- Purpose: Capture stocks benefiting from the same macro and thematic tailwinds.
- Rationale: MU and MRVL are often viewed through the lens of AI infrastructure and semiconductor demand. These themes help surface stocks with similar growth drivers and market narrative, which often translates into similar trend behavior.
Why Results Match:
- The screen targets liquid, large-cap semiconductor stocks rather than unrelated or illiquid names.
- It looks for stocks already trading above key moving averages, which is the core technical trait behind strong trend names like MU and MRVL.
- Positive 1-month and 3-month performance helps ensure the stocks are in a comparable momentum phase.
- Restricting to semiconductors and AI-related themes increases the chance of finding peers that are driven by the same industry catalysts and investor interest.
Overall, these filters are designed to find semiconductor stocks with strong, sustained bullish trends and similar momentum characteristics to MU and MRVL.
