Quick Start

from stock_screener import StockScreener

screener = StockScreener()

# Load stock data
screener.load_csv("stocks.csv")

# Apply filters
results = screener.filter(
    pe_ratio=(0, 20),
    market_cap_min=1e9,
    dividend_yield_min=2.0
)

print(results)

Filtering Criteria

Valuation Metrics

screener.filter(

    market_cap_max=10e9,   # Max $10B (mid-cap)
    revenue_min=500e6      # Min $500M revenue
)

Income Metrics

screener.filter(
    dividend_yield_min=2.0,  # Min 2% dividend
    dividend_yield_max=8.0,  # Max 8% (avoid yield traps)
    payout_ratio_max=75      # Sustainable payout
)

Ranking and Scoring

Rank by Single Metric

# Top 20 by dividend yield
top_dividend = screener.rank_by("dividend_yield", ascending=False).head(20)

Composite Scoring

# Score stocks with custom weights
scores = screener.score_stocks({
    "pe_ratio": -0.2,        # Lower is better
    "dividend_yield": 0.3,   # Higher is better
    "profit_margin": 0.3,    # Higher is better
    "revenue_growth": 0.2    # Higher is better
})
# Returns stocks ranked by composite score

Percentile Ranking

# See where each stock ranks on multiple metrics
ranked = screener.percentile_rank(["pe_ratio", "dividend_yield", "profit_margin"])
# Returns percentile (0-100) for each metric

Sector Analysis

sector_stats = screener.sector_summary()
# Returns:
#   sector        | count | avg_pe | avg_div | avg_margin
#   Technology    | 45    | 28.5   | 1.2     | 22.3
#   Healthcare    | 32    | 18.2   | 2.1     | 18.7
