Adding Return on Assets as an “Evaluate Management” metric when studying bank stocks
According to many resources, Return on Assets (ROA) is one of the best ways to evaluate profitability of a bank. %Pre-tax Profit on Sales is less useful when evaluating a bank, so I would suggest replacing that line with ROA for banks.
The calculation is done in one of 2 ways:
Return on Total Assets (ROTA) = CY Net Profit / CY Total Assets
Return on Average Assets (ROAA) = CY Net Profit / ((CY Total Assets + PY Total Assets)/2)Where CY = current year; PY = previous year
Both are used. ROTA would result in a more conservative…

Add a screener option to find up, straight, and parallel companies.

Allow the ability to update all relevant studies as a group rather than one at a time
It is time consuming and annoying to have to update all stocks for a club meeting one at a time. This should be changed to allow one step updating.
35 votesThanks for submitting and voting on this feature! It can now be accomplished by setting up a portfolio, adding the relevant stocks and then you can update the SSGs (either just prices or price and data) as a group. See the Portfolio Quick Start Guide available from the tools ‘Help and Information’ Tab for more information.

For example:
Research (the heading tab)

Add the TTM EPS to the printed SSG.
This suggestion applies to the printouts in both the CoreSSG and SSGPlus. Since the TTM EPS is often used in the Low Price calculation and is often the start point of the EPS 5 year projection, the value should be printed on the form for reference. Suggest that the TTM EPS value be added to section 3, near the current P/E, and/or to the graph to annotate the most recent quarter (if one has been reported beyond the fiscal year).
4 votesThank you for voting on this feature! The trailing twelve month (TTM) earnings per share (EPS) is now available in section 4 of the PDF report.
