CMC Markets Stockbroking joins forces with theScreener

CMC Markets Stockbroking has signed a partnership agreement with theScreener, to become Australia’s first stockbroker to provide frequent traders with more detailed research, analyst reports and stock picking recommendations through a unique star-rated reports system.

theScreener is a leader in independent equity analysis. Created in Switzerland, theScreener’s powerful software computes complex calculations on over 5,000 companies and securities from both the local and international equity markets. It extracts the most critical technical and fundamental elements, to create star-rated reports, inclusive of risk profiles, for each stock.

Andy Rogers, Head of CMC Markets Stockbroking said, “As part of the investment program in our platform, we scoured the globe for a partner that could provide genuine stock-level investment insights that could be integrated with our online broking platform”.

“We chose to partner with theScreener because its software can recreate the sophisticated techniques traditionally used by professional investors. In the coming months we will provide this innovation to our self-directed retail customers, which is another compelling reason to switch provider to CMC Markets Stockbroking,” adds Rogers.

theScreener’s depth of analysis gives Australian traders visibility on the performance of all ASX-based stocks by providing fundamental, technical and projecting criteria. It also creates a star rating based on earnings revenue trend, price potential, medium term technical trend and relative performance. Complementing the upside star ranking is the risk evaluation, which takes into account both the historical bear market and bad news behaviour indicators.

Ernst Roth, Managing Director of theScreener Asia Pacific said, “We are excited to extend our services to Australian investors and expect them to benefit greatly from our clear objective analysis”.

“For over a decade theScreener has clearly shown that purchasing stocks when the star rating of the stocks move from two to three stars, and three to four stars, have provided the most favourable performance, both on an absolute and relative to the benchmark basis,” adds Roth.

“All traders with CMC Markets can now make better informed investment decisions by generating compact, detailed stock reports with the click of a mouse,” says Rogers.

Rogers adds that professional buy-side investors, those from private banking to asset and portfolio managers, use this software to sanity check investment decisions.

“Most platforms today offer standard fundamental research within aesthetically pleasing browsers but we aim to offer traders more. CMC Markets Stockbroking’s hallmark is delivering powerful tools and market leading innovations within our trading platform and theScreener is the latest example of this strategy coming to fruition,” says Rogers.

theScreener reports are re-evaluated each week and also include newly launched funds.

Rogers adds that whilst the software is very simple to use, CMC Markets award-winning Education Team will produce a series of webinars and blog posts to illustrate the software’s full range of capability and the results it can deliver.
