Stock Screener


Executive Summary
Many people want to invest in the stock market. Most don’t have a clue what to invest in. Like many others, I have spent a considerable amount of time trying to make a fortune day-trading. I didn’t have any real strategy. I watched a small number of stocks, tried to anticipate the market changes, and in the end bought shares and prayed that they would appreciate. This was clearly not the best strategy.

The problem with my investment approach, and that of many others, is that it is not data driven and is very myopic in watching only one or two stocks. This Excel VBA project is intended to monitor, at the click of a button, current market conditions for all Dow Jones Industrial stocks and recommend potential investment opportunities.
