The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

CARG was compound annual growth rate.

When I sent myself an email on strategies I had run on their backtester I was testing weekly trading and monthly; I think the results were monthly in the list but it has been too long for me to recall now.

If I didn't expressly say "Valueline 1700" then that was not a criteria i.e. some screens used their more general stock universe, but those using it gave a reasonably capitalized size universe to start with so I liked having that (I often am doing the same thing on other mini-universes trying to get a better result than on such entire universes but starting with something reasonable, like the Nasdaq100 or S&P500).

They had some "canned" screens and some "public but from customers" screens and then I had some of my own; I didn't care the source so didn't keep the origin in my notes.
