What problem does it solve? Investors screening stocks often waste time on companies that fail basic quality standards, or rely on vague impressions instead of hard financial criteria. This Skill applies a disciplined, quantitative filter so weak companies are excluded early, before any deep research effort is spent. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Seven hard exclusion metrics: 10-year average ROE, 5-year cumulative free cash flow, interest coverage, gross margin, operating cash flow to net income ratio, net margin, and share dilution. - Three exemption rules: Strategic investment-period exemption, voluntary low-margin exemption, and high-turnover thin-margin exemption (e.g., Costco-type models) so genuinely good companies are not wrongly rejected. - Batch screening modes: Accepts individual stocks, entire industries, index constituents, or themes, then screens each company and outputs pass/fail/exempt tables with sector-level statistics. - Use Case: Ask it to screen the Hang Seng Index constituents; it collects financial data for each company via web search, checks all seven metrics, and returns a summary table showing which companies pass, which are excluded and why, plus a sector quality ranking. ## Quick Start Run the quality screen on the Chinese beer industry to filter out companies that fail the seven financial quality metrics.
