Screening Chinese Stocks by Turnover, Market Value, and Earnings Growth
Summary
The document describes an equity screen that first restricts candidates by turnover rate and circulating market value, then selects companies whose year-over-year net profit attributable to parent-company shareholders has grown by more than 20% and no more than 100%. It presents the screen as a way to focus on profitable businesses and supplies equivalent formula and Python examples, though the examples are implementation references rather than evidence of performance.
The author notes that the rule omits valuation and broader market behavior, and that earnings growth can weaken or prove unstable. The suggested refinements include adding valuation, growth, and financial measures, with technical indicators as possible aids. No historical results, transaction costs, benchmark, rebalancing schedule, or portfolio construction rules are provided. The screen is therefore a selection hypothesis, not a demonstrated investment strategy; the stated thresholds and source data definitions would also need to be checked before use.
Key ideas
- The screen filters stocks by turnover and circulating market value before applying an earnings-growth condition.
- It selects companies with year-over-year attributable net profit growth above 20% and at most 100%.
- The document warns that the screen does not account for valuation or market performance.
- It suggests combining financial and technical measures to broaden the selection process.
- No backtest results or portfolio rules are provided.
