Metaverse Stock Screen Using Turnover, Dividends, Valuation, and Momentum

Summary

This stock-selection proposal targets Chinese equities classified in the metaverse theme. Its initial conditions require prior-day turnover above 8% and a 2019 dividend payout ratio above 25%. The final version adds a price-to-earnings ratio below 20 and a ranking in the top 30% for gains over the prior 30 days. The note also outlines data retrieval for sector membership, dividends, financial information, and price history, although some of the sample code’s calculations and field assumptions are not fully explained.

The author says turnover and historical dividends do not capture a company’s fundamentals comprehensively, and flags downside exposure during unusual market moves or policy changes. The proposed refinements add profitability, valuation, technical, and market context, with a multi-factor approach suggested. The document gives screening rules and implementation references but no backtest or return evidence. Its dividend and financial data are historical, and the selection criteria and code would need validation for timing, definitions, and survivorship effects before research use.

Key ideas

• The screen begins with metaverse sector membership, elevated prior-day turnover, and a historical dividend payout condition.
• The final criteria add a valuation ceiling and a strong recent-return rank.
• The note recognizes that these filters do not provide a complete view of company fundamentals.
• It proposes combining fundamental, technical, and market factors in a broader model.
• The document supplies no performance evidence, and its sample data handling requires validation.
