With dividend

Screening Filters

1. Price (max: $20):

   • Purpose: To identify stocks that are priced at $20 or below.
   • Rationale: The user specifically requested stocks under $20, so this filter ensures that only stocks meeting this price criterion are included in the results.

2. Annual Dividend Yield (min: 3%):

   • Purpose: To find stocks that provide a dividend yield of at least 3%.
   • Rationale: The user mentioned "with dividend," which implies an interest in stocks that pay dividends. Setting a minimum dividend yield ensures that only stocks offering a meaningful return through dividends are considered.

3. Weekly Average Turnover (min: $2,000,000):

   • Purpose: To ensure the stocks have sufficient liquidity.
   • Rationale: A high average turnover indicates that the stock is actively traded, making it easier for the user to buy or sell shares without significant price impact. This is particularly important for smaller-priced stocks, which can sometimes have low liquidity.

Why Results Match:

• The price filter directly aligns with the user's request for stocks under $20, ensuring affordability.
• The dividend yield filter addresses the user's interest in dividend-paying stocks by focusing on those with a meaningful yield (3% or higher).
• The turnover filter ensures that the selected stocks are liquid and actively traded, reducing the risk of illiquidity often associated with lower-priced stocks.

Together, these filters provide a targeted list of affordable, dividend-paying stocks with sufficient liquidity, matching the user's query effectively.
