The Screener is a great way to find stocks you may not normally consider.
To get to the Screener, open the left navigation panel and click the first button that says 'Screener' at the top of the navigation list. Once opened, you will see the screener criteria fields. You can use as many or as few criteria as you want in our Screener.
If you need inspiration, click the drop-down menu on the cloud icon in the upper right corner and choose our Predefined Screener Criteria.
You can also save and name your screener criteria or load any previously saved criteria. Once you've entered the criteria you want the Screener to use, click Run. At the bottom of the page, a list of companies that meet your criteria will appear.
Screener criteria you can use
Company Countries: Leave 'Countries, Sectors, and Industries' blank to search across all markets and sectors, or select exclude to omit them. Specifying these filters narrows your search to selected areas.
Exchanges: Include or omit specific market exchanges.
Sectors: If you're interested in one or a few sectors, you can filter for them or exclude them. Examples of sectors include Technology, Financial Services, and Healthcare.
Industries: Filter for particular industries where you may want to run your Screener. These include Construction, Consumer Electronics, and Steel.
Market Capitalization: To filter companies, specify a minimum or maximum market cap. Typing "b" for billions and "m" for millions helps refine the search to companies of a specific size, though smaller companies might have less data available.
Historical Data: This is optional, but you can choose from the calendar setting to run the screen for a specific month.

Additional Filters
Additional Filters
Scrab provides additional filters to help you narrow down your screener results. By using Scrab's sorting and filtering tools, you can simplify your results by narrowing your focus to top performers.
For instance, you can sort companies by debt-to-assets ratio to find the lowest or use the filter tool to set multiple conditions, like combining debt-to-assets less than 30% with a Current Ratio over 1.5. This effectively narrows down your list.
Additionally, you can customize filters with logical operators like AND/OR to handle complex criteria, allowing you to manage lists from broad or specific angles based on your investment strategy.
