Screening Chinese Stocks by Recent Gains and Afternoon Fund Flows

Summary

This proposed Chinese equity screen combines three signals: ten-day price appreciation above zero but below 35, positive afternoon net inflows from large orders, and ranking by capital intensity. The stated rationale is to find stocks with recent upward movement and signs of buying interest while avoiding those whose recent gains are already large. The article also presents a top-100 capital-intensity filter in its sample logic.

The document offers no backtest, return series, benchmark comparison, or evidence that large-order flows predict future performance. It acknowledges that the screen cannot ensure prices will rise and does not account for company fundamentals. Its sample code is incomplete and does not clearly implement every described filter, so the written selection logic is more informative than the code as an executable strategy.

Key ideas

• The screen favors stocks with positive but capped ten-day gains.
• It requires positive afternoon net inflows attributed to large orders.
• Capital intensity is used to rank candidates, with sample logic referring to the top 100.
• The article provides no performance evidence and says gains are not guaranteed.
• The sample code is incomplete and may not faithfully implement the described screen.
