Overview
The Research terminal is GNG Research's stock and ETF screener. It lets you scan a universe of roughly 5,600 listed securities against more than 250 financial, valuation, dividend, growth, technical, and sentiment metrics, plus GNG Research's own ratings. You choose the columns you want to see, set filters on any of them, sort, and read the matching companies in a fast scrolling table. This page explains what the screener is for, what it shows, and how it fits with the rest of the platform. The page is open to Free, Pro Lite, and Pro accounts. Access is gated at the column level, not the page level: a large core column set is available to every tier, and a large premium set requires the Pro plan.
What it shows
The screener answers one core question: show every company that meets a set of conditions, with exactly the numbers you want, ranked the way you want. It is built for value, dividend, growth, quality, momentum, and quant-style screening on a single surface. The parts you work with are described in the following sections.
Results table
The screener is a data-table tool, not a charting tool. Its single surface is a wide, horizontally scrollable grid. Each row is one security and each column is a metric you selected. The left Symbol column stays pinned while you scroll sideways. Color is used sparingly as a reading aid: the discount-to-fair-value reading shows green when the price is below estimated fair value and red when above, and the PEGY column tints by how rich or cheap the ratio is.
Filters and columns
A filter builder lets you set conditions on any metric: numeric ranges, multi-select lists for categorical fields, date windows, and contains-text boxes. A column selector lets you choose which of the 250-plus metrics appear, reorder them, and turn on a per-column summary row. Columns above your tier appear with a lock marker.
Views, summaries, and export
You can save a screen as a reusable View, restrict the table to the holdings of one of your own portfolios, add Sum, Average, Median, or Count summaries to numeric columns, and, on Pro, export the result to CSV, Excel, or PDF.
Inputs
The page takes no input beyond the filters, columns, sort, and view you set. Each control is documented under Screen and filter, and the full column list is in Screening columns and data.
Outputs and how to read them
Each row is one security, and each cell is one metric formatted to its natural unit: currency, percent, ratio, plain number, market-cap shorthand such as 1.2T or 340B, or a date. Missing values show as N/A. A count line reports how much of the matched universe is loaded, in the form "Showing X of Y companies." Read a company across its row, then compare companies down a column, and sort by the column that matters most for your screen. The proprietary GNG columns (Safety, Quality, the valuation Rating, the GNG Quant score and rating, the blended Fair Value and its discount, and the buy-zone and trim prices) are read as a starting filter and a relative ranking.
Data and timing
The universe is one consolidated, regularly refreshed row of metrics per security. Source data comes from AlphaVantage for prices and fundamentals, Nasdaq quotes delivered through AlphaVantage, and public company filings from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission sourced through EDGAR, enriched with GNG Research's own computed metrics and ratings. Most figures refresh once per trading day, so the table reflects the latest processed snapshot rather than live intraday values.
Use cases
- Value screening: filter for low PEGY or P/E, a meaningful discount to fair value, and a strong Safety or Quality score.
- Dividend and income screening: filter for a minimum dividend yield, a sustainable payout ratio, and a positive dividend-growth rate.
- Quality and quant screening: combine high ROIC, low leverage, a high Piotroski F-Score, and a strong GNG Quant rating.
- Momentum and technical screening: filter on multi-month returns, RSI, MACD posture, or distance from the 52-week high.
- Portfolio review: point the screener at your own portfolio's holdings and lay out any columns you like to audit valuation, safety, and momentum across everything you own.
Limitations and disclosures
Data refreshes on a schedule, largely daily for fundamentals, so figures reflect the latest processed snapshot rather than live intraday values. Summary statistics are computed over the rows currently loaded, not necessarily the entire matched universe. Free and Pro Lite see the core column set only: the premium metrics, the proprietary GNG scores as columns, larger page sizes, and export require Pro or higher. Screening surfaces candidates and rankings, it does not make recommendations. This tool surfaces ratings, fair value estimates, and buy-zone prices that read as guidance, so it carries the disclosure below.
