Start with the basicsPick a ready-made investor profile below, or set your own filters in the screener. Every column has a short explanation.
Open the screenerIf you want to skip the stock screener and just view the information for a specific stock, use our stock menu to search for a specific stock and choose it. The information of the picked stock will then appear.
Look up a stockA stock screener filters thousands of listed companies down to the few that match the numbers you choose - for example "sales growing at least 10 % a year" or "a dividend yield between 2 % and 7 %". It shows you where to start looking. It does not tell you what to buy.
On Ticker Picker you choose the columns you want to see, sort by the one that matters most to you, and filter by sector and country. Click any company to open its full page with financial statements, key ratios, valuation and news.

Each profile opens the screener with a set of filters that describes one type of company. Look at what comes up, then adjust the filters yourself.
Companies that are growing fast
Revenue up 10 to 20 % in a year, earnings per share up at least 10 %, profitable, and not priced at an extreme P/E.
Large companies that pay a regular dividend
A dividend yield of 2-7 %, at least 10 billion in market value, calm share price and positive earnings.
Smaller, fast-growing companies with big swings
Revenue up at least 20 %, little or no dividend, a share price that swings more than the market, under 10 billion in value.

Discover our stock screener, which can be used to find stocks you might not have found otherwise, based on basic metrics or our own price estimates. Remember to validate the data yourself and conduct your own assessments, as the screener is not intended to be used as financial advice or any base of financial decision.
Transparency
Financial statements come from the companies' official filings (for US companies: SEC EDGAR). Share prices come from market data providers and are updated daily. Company descriptions and the bias and factuality ratings of news articles are partly produced with AI and checked automatically, not by hand.
Data can be delayed, incomplete or wrong. Numbers that look far outside the normal range are marked with a flag so you know to check them. Always confirm important figures in the company's own reports.
This content is not investment advice. Ticker Picker shows data and explains it; it does not recommend buying or selling anything.
