Scroll down to see a list of Internet sites that will provide a free education about Stock Screeners.
Finding stocks that exhibit the characteristics that we like is easy, due in part to the availability of stock screeners. These computer programs review data on a large number of stocks and pick out the ones that match the criteria that we have entered. There are many sites that offer stock screeners. Some of them have preset screens. Some of them do the screening for us and provide us with an automatic rating for any symbol we enter.
The sites below are a selection from those that provide stock screeners and automatic ratings.

http://www.nasdaq.com/ has a compare/screener for ETF’s and a screener for stocks that has a brief tutorial. The stock screener claims to be the web’s first “smart” financial screening tool. It provides many screening criteria and it screens against investing methods of the gurus. There are eight gurus’ methods available including those of James P. O’Shaughnessy, Peter Lynch, Benjamin Graham, Kenneth Fisher, David Dreman and Martin Zweig.
http://www.amex.com/ has a screener for ETF’s buried in its ETF section under Tools and Research. The screener enables us to pick out ETF’s based on characteristics of the ETF, its performance and the equities it contains.
http://www.marketscreen.com/ has an Education section that allows us to key in the symbol for a stock. The system responds with extensive information under the http://www.pcquote.com/ banner. We can also access http://www.pcquote.com/ directly to obtain plenty of free information when we key in a stock symbol.
http://www.marketscreen.com/ also provides easy navigation to a huge amount of fundamental and technical data about a stock through its stock screener. There are hundreds of preset screens based on an overview of the market, moving averages, trend indicators, support and resistance, price/volume, chart patterns, oscillators and other technicals. Click on any one of these categories and dozens of alternatives will be presented. Choose from the numbers presented for stocks listed on the Nasdaq, New York Stock Exchange and American Stock Exchange and that list of stocks will be shown. Click on a column heading and the list will be sorted in that order. Click on the symbol for a chart, or click on SQ/P/N/F for quotes, profiles, news and filings. Clicking on the quote brings up price and fundamental data along with a chart, the duration, type and frequency of which can be changed. When we need information about a particular stock we just key in the symbol and there it is.
http://www.stockconsultant.com/ also has a preset stock screener but limits the results to just three stocks for those not paying for a subscription.
