Combining Dividend History, Trading Activity, and Capital Flow in a Stock Screen

Article SuperMind

Summary

This Chinese equity screening idea combines three filters: recent capital-flow strength, appearance on the prior day's trading activity ranking, and a dividend payout ratio above 25% for 2019. The article's final selection logic further narrows candidates by ranking recent inflows and the number of trading-list seats, then applies price and trading-volume thresholds. It frames these criteria as a way to find actively traded companies with a history of substantial distributions.

The rationale is qualitative: strong inflows may attract attention, an appearance on the trading list indicates activity, and a high payout ratio reflects distributions. The document does not provide a backtest, explain how the signals are calculated, or show evidence that the combination predicts returns. It cautions that inflows can accompany overheated trading, activity without supportive news may bring short-term volatility, and a high payout ratio can also coincide with price swings. It suggests adding flow windows, trading-list details, and financial checks.

Key ideas

  • The screen combines recent capital-flow ranking, prior-day trading-list activity, and a 2019 dividend payout ratio above 25%.
  • Additional filters include stock price below 20 yuan and trading volume above 1,000 lots.
  • The document presents qualitative explanations for the criteria but no empirical performance results.
  • Trading activity and high distributions may coincide with volatility or overextended prices.
  • The proposed improvements include checking flow periods, trading-list details, and company finances.
