Value Dividend Screener

Screens US stocks for dividend opportunities that hit value metrics (P/E under 20, P/B under 2) while delivering 3%+ yields and showing consistent dividend, revenue, and EPS growth over three years. The two-stage approach is smart: use FINVIZ Elite API to pre-filter candidates, then hit Financial Modeling Prep for detailed fundamentals. This cuts API calls by 90%, which matters if you're on a free tier. You get a ranked JSON output with composite scores balancing valuation, sustainability (payout ratios, FCF coverage), and quality metrics. Honest take: the methodology is solid for avoiding dividend traps, but you're still dependent on having both API keys to get the efficiency benefit, and FINVIZ Elite costs $40/month.

Value Dividend Screener

Overview

This skill identifies high-quality dividend stocks that combine value characteristics, attractive income generation, and consistent growth using a two-stage screening approach:

FINVIZ Elite API (Optional but Recommended): Pre-screen stocks with basic criteria (fast, cost-effective)
Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) API: Detailed fundamental analysis of candidates

Screen US equities based on quantitative criteria including valuation ratios, dividend metrics, financial health, and profitability. Generate comprehensive reports ranking stocks by composite quality scores with detailed fundamental analysis.

Efficiency Advantage: Using FINVIZ pre-screening can reduce FMP API calls by 90%, making this approach ideal for free-tier API users.
