A phenomenal range of stock analysis tools
SharePad's professional-quality investing tools enable you to quickly eliminate weaker stocks and home in on the very best investment opportunities.
Research any which way you like
Sometimes investment ideas come from simply sorting shares in a list. For example, which are the highest yielding stocks in the FTSE 350, or the stocks with the highest ROCE? SharePad's easy-to-customise tables enable you to sort shares by any criteria. You can filter down to subsector level and export to spreadsheet if you want to do your own number-crunching.
In-depth analysis in seconds
If you want to check out a specific stock, your first port of call is SharePad's stock dashboard. The 24 carefully-selected metrics highlight a stock's strengths and weaknesses at a glance. The dashboard gives you not just current data but context as well. For example, how does the stock's current PE compared to its 3 year average? You can change any of the metrics on the dashboard.
More financial history than any other service
With up to 20 years' history for each share, you can analyse performance over multiple market cycles - not just the latest bull market. You'll get full financial statements for all UK and US companies including interims, trailing 12 months and forecasts even in the basic package. Drag any item onto a bar chart to help spot trends and cycles.
Ratio heaven
Investment ratios help you analyse a company's growth potential, performance, quality, financial stability and valuation. SharePad provides a huge range of investment ratios with history going back over 20 years. Ratios are organised into categories in a dedicated view in SharePad.
Custom-build your own research view
The likelihood is that you won't be interested in every single result and ratio SharePad has to offer. That's why customers love the ability to create their own custom results tables containing the specific metrics they are most interested in. Give sections relevant titles like Headline results, Value, Returns, Quality and Safety. No more spreadsheets!
Professional-quality advanced investor tools
The goal of most investors is to buy great companies at cheap prices. SharePad provides four popular and easy-to-use valuation models which will help you determine whether a stock is currently undervalued or overvalued - and by how much.
A picture speaks a thousand words
SharePad's unique Financial Charting tool helps you explore the relationship between different metrics or compare companies. For example, see how rising debt levels are impacting return on capital employed (ROCE) for a company, or plot operating margin for all the companies in a subsector. It's a fantastic tool for illustrating stock reports and presentations.
What do the brokers think?
Find out what brokers think of a stock and whether sentiment is improving or deteriorating.
View consensus and individual forecasts for turnover, profits, dividends and price targets.
Who's been buying or selling?
Investors often take their cue from the buying and selling activity of company directors and institutional investors. For example, directors buying when the share price has fallen sharply can be a sign of confidence in the company's prospects. SharePad provides a breakdown of institutional shareholders, directors and their recent activity. See whether major investors have been net buyers or sellers over the previous 3 months.
Stock screening that beats every other service hands down
With all this financial data at its disposal, SharePad enables powerful stock screening using an unrivalled range of criteria. You'll home in on the very best quality stocks in no time. Use our range of prebuilt "guru" filters or create your own.
Choose from hundreds of different criteria - including growth, annualised growth and multi-year averages for most items. You can even combine items e.g. forecast PE lower than 5y average PE.
