You can remove the need to be penny stock

Screening Filters

1. Themes: AI Beneficiary, Aerospace & Defense

   • Purpose: Direct the search toward companies that are:
     • Leveraging or enabled by AI (software, analytics, autonomy, etc.), and
     • Operating in aerospace, drones, and defense-related markets.
   • Rationale:
     • Your focus is on AI, drones, aerospace, and military defense contracts.
     • The AI Beneficiary theme targets firms whose business models or growth prospects significantly benefit from AI (for example, autonomous drones, targeting systems, surveillance, logistics optimization).
     • The Aerospace & Defense theme targets companies involved in aircraft, drones, missile systems, military communications, and other defense technologies—directly aligned with your military and conflict-driven thesis.
     • Drones typically sit at the intersection of these two themes (aerospace/defense + AI/autonomy), so using both themes helps capture that overlap.

2. Region: United States

   • Purpose: Limit results to U.S.-based companies.
   • Rationale:
     • You specifically referenced U.S. government military contracts and current geopolitical tensions.
     • U.S.-listed, U.S-focused companies are more likely to be prime contractors or key subcontractors for U.S. DoD and other government agencies.
     • This filter removes foreign defense names that may not directly benefit from U.S. defense spending.

3. Exchanges: XNYS, XNAS, XASE (NYSE, NASDAQ, NYSE American)

   • Purpose: Include the main U.S. stock exchanges where most liquid and institutionally followed defense and AI names are listed.
   • Rationale:
     • You no longer want to restrict to penny stocks, so we’ve moved away from tiny OTC names and focused on primary U.S. exchanges.
     • This still includes smaller and mid-sized companies (especially on NASDAQ and NYSE American) but generally avoids the lowest-quality, illiquid tickers.
     • These exchanges are where you’ll find serious AI, drone, and defense players—both established and emerging.

4. One-Month Rise Probability: min 60%

   • Purpose: Tilt the list toward stocks with a model-estimated higher probability of rising over the next month.
   • Rationale:
     • Your language (“soon going to skyrocket”, “propel these companies soon”) implies you care about near-term upside potential, even though no one can guarantee a spike.
     • A minimum threshold of 60% rise probability is relatively demanding and helps screen out names where the model sees more balanced or negative odds in the short term.
     • This does not guarantee gains, but it aligns the screen with your desire for near-term positive momentum candidates.

5. One-Month Predicted Return: min 10%

   • Purpose: Focus on stocks with expected double-digit positive return over the next month according to the prediction model.
   • Rationale:
     • You’re explicitly seeking names that could move significantly, not just marginally.
     • A minimum predicted return of +10% in one month is an aggressive target that filters for high-upside scenarios as estimated by the model.
     • Together with the 60% rise probability, this aims to prioritize high-upside, higher-probability names among AI and defense plays.

6. Analyst Consensus: Strong Buy, Moderate Buy

   • Purpose: Include only stocks that the analyst community views positively.
   • Rationale:
     • You are interested in companies that might benefit from contracts and conflicts; analysts often incorporate known pipelines, contracts, backlogs, and military budgets into their estimates.
     • Requiring Strong Buy or Moderate Buy:
       • Filters out names where analysts see serious fundamental concerns or limited upside.
       • Adds a layer of fundamental validation (earnings outlook, contract visibility, competitive position) on top of the model’s short-term return signal.
     • This is especially helpful now that you’re not limiting to penny stocks; analyst coverage is far more common in larger, more established defense and AI companies.

Why These Results Match Your Request

• The AI Beneficiary + Aerospace & Defense themes directly target the AI, drone, aerospace, and defense-contract universe you specified.
• Constraining to U.S. companies on major exchanges lines up with your focus on U.S. government military contracts, while avoiding very low-quality OTC penny stocks.
• The one-month rise probability and one-month predicted return filters are designed to reflect your desire for names that could move meaningfully in the near term, while still recognizing that no such move is guaranteed.
• The analyst consensus filter overlays a fundamental quality/visibility screen, increasing the chance that these are real businesses with credible exposure to defense and AI themes—not just speculative tickers.

Together, these filters aim to surface U.S.-listed AI, drone, aerospace, and defense companies with favorable short-term model signals and positive analyst views, consistent with your updated request to move beyond penny stocks.
