Key insights
- The article discusses using screeners and AI to find undervalued growth stocks. It suggests relaxed market cap and valuation filters initially, focusing on revenue and EPS growth. The author proposes a specific screener preset and an AI prompt for analyzing companies, aiming to identify potential investment opportunities based on fundamental analysis. This could lead to increased interest in specific stocks identified by these methods.

Hi, I am constantly fighting my own demons about optimising and finding new screeners ideas to find the next big thing and optimising my AI prompt once I import my downloaded data into AI so:-
- As a screener new settings from Felix and friends fundamentals does this look good?
Use these as a broad first pass:
- Market cap: Small + Mid + Large. * Price: Above $3 or $5. * Revenue growth: Positive, ideally above 10% if available. * EPS growth: Positive, or at least improving. * Gross/operating margin: Positive, or trending up. * P/E: Leave wide at first, or cap around 50 for growth names. * PEG: Leave wide, or under 3 if you want some valuation discipline. * Volume: Above 90-day average, not too strict. * RSI: 40 to 80. * 50-day vs 200-day MA: Either above 200-day, or at least not far below it.
Why this works
- Loose market-cap and valuation filters stop you from missing early growth stocks. * Revenue and EPS growth keep the list from becoming pure junk. * Volume and trend filters help avoid dead names without forcing only breakout stocks. * Investing.com specifically highlights growth, PEG, ROE, profit margin, momentum, market cap, and analyst upside as useful screener metrics.
Best workflow
- First screen: broad and messy. * Second screen: tighten using your uploaded document. * Final check: business quality, cash flow, balance sheet, and catalyst.
My suggested preset
- Market cap: $300M to $20B. * Revenue growth: >10%. * EPS growth: >10% or positive. * P/E: 0 to 50. * PEG: 0 to 3. * Current ratio: >1. * Debt/equity: under 1.5 if possible. * 3M price change: positive. * Avg volume: above 100k.
- Does this AI prompt that I optimised from several different redditors will work out?

Balance Sheet Analysis: Evaluate the company's debt levels, debt-to-equity ratio, current ratio, and cash position. Is the balance sheet strong or weak?

Market Opportunity: Analyze the Total Addressable Market (TAM) and the company's potential to capture a larger market share.
- Management & Governance:
