Hi everyone,

I wanted to provide an update with respect to Valuentum’s stock screeners. We believe our stock screeners are among the most robust when it comes to providing forward-looking data, or data that is important with respect to the investment decision-making process. We publish screens in each of the monthly newsletters, but we also provide a basic weekly screener for download on the left column of the website, “Download Weekly Stock Screener (xls) — login required.”  

We also have other products. The more robust DataScreener, for example, is part of the quarterly Financial Advisor membership plan, of which many of you are a part. Here is a sample of last quarter's DataScreener, for example (xls): https://valuentum.com/downloads/20181015/download 

The next edition of the DataScreener will be released January 12. 

Please be sure to take advantage of all the work we are doing. Many of you use backward-looking data as a part of the investment decision-making process but remember stock prices and returns can only be a function of future expectations, not future reality, and therefore realized data cannot tell the story behind stock prices and returns. That’s why we have so much forward-looking data in our screener because it is the forward-looking data that is most important.  

Our forward-looking data comes straight from our enterprise discounted cash flow models that we use to derive a company’s fair value estimate. We also make these enterprise discounted cash flow models available in full transparency, so if you’re wondering how we calculate a metric, just ask. For example, it may be as simple as explaining that we use average invested capital between last year and this year in calculating return on invested capital as to why our measure is different than others’.   

Many other providers may have inconsistencies in the data, but you’re getting our data straight from the models. For example, where a data provider may have a different measure of return on invested capital in one area than the one that the analyst calculates, sometimes showing value-destruction in one case and value-creation in another, our work is always consistent. Most importantly, please ask questions. The worst thing that you can do is assume that we don’t have what you’re looking for. We’ve only added more features to the website in recent years, not less.
