Screening Filters
Beta: ['HighRisk']
- Purpose: To identify stocks with high volatility relative to the market.
- Rationale: Beta measures a stock's sensitivity to market movements. A high beta indicates that the stock is more volatile and therefore riskier, aligning with the user's request for high-risk stocks.
Market Cap: {'min': '1000000000'}
- Purpose: To filter out very small-cap or micro-cap stocks, which may be excessively risky or illiquid.
- Rationale: By setting a minimum market capitalization of $1 billion, the screener ensures that the selected stocks are from relatively established companies, balancing risk with some level of stability and liquidity.
Relative Volume: {'min': '1.5'}
- Purpose: To identify stocks with significantly higher trading activity compared to their average volume.
- Rationale: A relative volume above 1.5 indicates that the stock is currently experiencing heightened interest or activity, which could signal potential opportunities or risks. This aligns with the user's interest in high-risk stocks, as increased activity often correlates with volatility.
P/E (Price-to-Earnings) TTM: {'max': '15'}
- Purpose: To focus on stocks that are relatively undervalued based on their earnings.
- Rationale: A P/E ratio cap of 15 ensures that the selected stocks are not excessively overvalued, which could mitigate some downside risk while still allowing for high-risk opportunities. This filter adds a layer of financial prudence to the high-risk selection.
Why Results Match:
- The Beta filter directly targets high-risk stocks by focusing on those with high volatility, which is a key characteristic of riskier investments.
- The Market Cap filter ensures that the selected stocks are not from extremely small or illiquid companies, which could pose excessive risk beyond what the user may intend.
- The Relative Volume filter highlights stocks with unusual trading activity, which often correlates with higher volatility and potential price swings, aligning with the high-risk focus.
- The P/E TTM filter ensures that the selected stocks are not excessively overvalued, providing a balance between risk and valuation, which is important for making informed high-risk investments.
By combining these filters, the screener identifies stocks that are volatile and high-risk but still maintain some level of financial and market stability, aligning with the user's request to invest in high-risk stocks.
