Screening Shanghai-Listed Stocks by Turnover and Holder Accumulation

Summary

The document describes a Chinese equity screening rule that selects stocks whose codes begin with 60, whose turnover rate is between 3% and 12%, and whose reported daily increase in holdings exceeds 5%. It gives both a database-style selection expression and a Python example intended to retrieve stock data and apply the filters.

The rationale offered is that turnover can represent liquidity and the holdings-change measure may indicate money flows. The document does not provide a historical backtest, performance data, or evidence that the filters predict returns. It also cautions that stock prices may be driven by company fundamentals and macroeconomic factors, and that a single holdings measure may not capture price direction reliably. It suggests adding fundamental measures and technical indicators, but does not specify or evaluate an improved screen. The code examples and metric definitions may depend on the data provider and should be checked before use.

Key ideas

• The screen selects stocks with codes beginning with 60 and turnover between 3% and 12%.
• It additionally requires the reported daily increase in holdings to exceed 5%.
• The document presents database and Python examples for applying the conditions.
• It offers no backtest or performance evidence for the selection rule.
• It warns that holdings changes alone may not reliably represent a stock’s prospects.
