New Creating Custom Screeners Video

 

We have created a new 17-minute video that shows how to use Stock Rover’s powerful and flexible screener to find promising investment candidates from a much larger investment universe of thousands of stocks and ETFs.

 

The video starts with a basic GARP or Growth at a Reasonable Price screener and builds towards a much more sophisticated screener, utilizing ranking, historical comparison, and freeform equations. The video can be viewed here.

 
 

Economy

The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller National Home Price Index reported an 8.4% annual gain in October. The last time that the Home Price Index matched the 8.4% growth rate was in March 2014. The housing market’s strength was broadly-based: 19 cities (Detroit excluded due to COVID reporting delays) gained more in the 12 months ending in October than they had gained in the 12 months ending in September. The biggest price gain occurred in Phoenix, with a 12.7% year-over-year price increase, followed by Seattle with 11.7% and San Diego at 11.6. Craig Lazzara, Managing Director at S&P Dow Jones Indices indicated COVID was a driving factor stating “…the data from the last several months are consistent with the view that COVID has encouraged potential buyers to move from urban apartments to suburban homes.
