00:00 Hey guys, so today I'm just going to be giving a quick demo of the stock screener that we've
00:05 been working on and have just recently made available on the website.
00:09 You can find it by going to quiverquant.com and then just clicking here on the screener
00:14 tab at the middle top of the window.
00:16 And you'll arrive here at the overview window.
00:20 I'll start by giving sort of a brief rundown and explanation of the overview and performance
00:26 layers of the stock screener.
00:28 And from there, I'll explain the social government and insider layers a bit more in depth probably
00:33 than I do with the overview and performance layers.
00:37 But I won't go super in depth or try to find any particular stocks or trades using the
00:44 stock screener today.
00:46 I really just want to, like I said, demonstrate some of the functionalities and also explain
00:52 some of the columns that might look a bit unfamiliar in the social government and insider
00:58 layers.
00:59 So yeah, let's go ahead and get started.
01:01 So in the overview and performance layers of the stock screener, most of these columns
01:06 are relatively self-explanatory data.
01:08 I won't spend too much time going into depth here.
01:12 Most of these data points are things that you would find on a company's quarterly financial
01:16 report or maybe a company's balance sheet.
01:20 As far as functionalities here of this layer, all of the columns can be sorted both top
01:25 down and bottom up, as you see there, using these buttons that are-- or rather arrows
01:31 that are to the right of the column descriptors.
01:34 In addition to that, we also have a filters tab over here.
01:40 And using the filters tab, you can set different financial, performance, social, government,
01:44 or insider filters.
01:46 All of the different filters within each one of these dropdowns will, of course, correlate
01:51 to the columns that you would see in, for instance, the insider layer of the screener
01:58 or in the government layer of the screener and so on.
02:03 Here's the social layer of the stock screener.
02:05 I think this is a really good layer of the screener to use if you're maybe interested
02:10 in gauging general consumer interest in a stock based off perhaps how many followers
02:15 a company is gaining or losing on Twitter.
02:19 It's also a really good way of getting a sense of how much retail momentum a stock might
02:23 be gaining or losing just by looking at how many times it's being discussed on the Reddit
02:29 forum WallStreetBets.
02:30 It's pretty well known that a good amount of the retail momentum that a stock can experience
02:36 sort of often stems or at least sees a lot of contribution from the WallStreetBets forum.
02:43 Here's the government layer of the stock screener.
02:46 In the government layer of the stock screener, you'll find congressional volume summed over
02:51 two periods, corporate lobbying expenditures summed over two periods, and awarded government
02:56 contracts summed over two periods.
02:59 This is all data that can also be found on each of their own respective dashboards.
03:03 We have a congressional trades dashboard.
03:05 We have a corporate lobbying dashboard and also a awarded government contracts dashboard,
03:10 but this is a good spot to find all of that data in one place.
03:14 The only columns here that may be a bit confusing perhaps might be these two sentiment columns
03:19 that you see here in the middle of the screener, but they're really actually quite insightful
03:24 and pretty simple to calculate.
03:27 For each of the respective stocks that you see to the left, we just take the purchase
03:31 volume over the period, either three months or a year, and we divide that by the total
03:37 amount of volume that the stock has seen in the same period of time to create sort of
03:41 a sentiment ratio.
03:43 The insider or corporate insider layer is the final layer of the stock screener that
03:47 I'll be discussing today.
03:49 In this layer of the screener, you can find corporate insider volume summed across one
03:53 week, three months, and one year.
03:56 As you can see, these insider volume sums are estimated US dollar amounts and are also
04:01 consisting of both insider purchases and insider sales.
04:05 So that's why we have these sentiment columns over here to the right.
04:09 As you can see with respect to these sentiment columns, they're calculated identically to
04:13 the sentiment columns that you see in the government layer of the stock screener with
04:17 respect to congressional sentiment.
04:19 Similarly, too much of the data that can be found in the columns of the government screener,
04:24 the data that you see here in the insider screener can also be found on its own respective
04:28 dashboard here called the insider trading dashboard.
04:31 However, using the insider screener is a great way to sort through companies with insider
04:36 volume a little bit quicker, as well as set some of your own filters and parameters, which
04:41 are things that you can't currently do on the insider dashboard.
04:45 So that's pretty much all I'll be discussing for today, but please do let me know in the
04:49 comments if you guys have any questions or suggestions regarding the screener or any
04:54 other video content that you might like to see.
04:57 And I hope you guys enjoyed the video and have a great day.
