What this tool returns
Returns the top stocks ranked by a metric you choose, such as dividend yield, PER, ROE or year-to-date change. You can narrow the ranking to one sector. Ratios are 0–1 decimals (0.1 = 10%). Only operating companies’ shares are ranked (no ETFs, REITs, preferred shares, TOKYO PRO Market or delisted stocks), and except for the market-cap ranking only stocks of JPY 5 billion or more. ROE and ROA above 100% and CAGR above 100% a year are left out as outliers.
