Screening Chinese Stocks for Moving-Average Convergence and High Dividends

Summary

This stock-screening idea combines three conditions: at least five moving averages converge, company scale exceeds two hundred million in the source’s stated units, and the dividend payout ratio for 2019 is above 25 percent. The post interprets converging averages as a possible sign of nearby support or resistance, the size threshold as a liquidity consideration, and the payout condition as evidence of dividend capacity. It presents these as selection rationales rather than demonstrated effects.

The document offers no selected-stock list, historical test, or measured return and risk results. It warns that average alignment may not reflect the underlying price path, that the size threshold may not ensure adequate liquidity for every investor, and that past payout levels may not meet expectations. It suggests adding further moving averages, company characteristics, and market variables, but does not define or evaluate those additions. The included code is only a placeholder and does not implement the described screen, so the rules should be understood as a screening concept rather than a verified strategy.

Key ideas

• The screen requires at least five converging moving averages.
• It also applies a company-size threshold and a 2019 dividend payout ratio above 25 percent.
• The post treats average convergence as a possible support or resistance signal, not a guarantee.
• Company size and past dividends do not ensure liquidity or future payout satisfaction.
• No backtest or functioning implementation of the proposed screen is provided.
