Dividend Terms, Metrics, and Rules
#5
The list specifically mentions that the Chowder, Graham, and Tweed info comes from the note page of the CCC list.  I have not yet done a deeper search for more info on those.. if anyone runs across any reference info for those, i'd be happy to add links.

Actually, I haven't googled yet, but I image there are probably all sort of screening rules.  Perhaps an interesting topic in itself to explore there - document, compare, and contrast different rules.  

I didn't mean to offend (if any was taken) with my comment about assumptions - it was not meant to be critical.  To have any sort of serious conversation on a technical topic there are of course assumptions being made about terminology - not just here, but anywhere.  In university IT classes ages ago, we called the process of agreeing on the meanings of terms 'coming to terms'.  I was just calling out that I struggle with that sometimes and was a motivation for my list.

One of the goals of that list was to provide fodder for discussion.  So far, both my attempts (database and terms list) have not generated much response.

I've already gotten a lot of value from this site - Finding out about the CCC list alone - and the studying of it - was a big learning for me - especially some of the things related to screening rules.

I wrote a bunch of code to extract (and keep up to date) what i 'think' is all the data from yahoo and alpaca data source APIs needed to reproduce that list.  Its just raw data in a database right now, still need to sort out the queries to process it into useful form... a report or spreadsheet or something...but I fell off the wagon when the weather turned nice.

I can only imagine that Mr Fish also had some sort of automation to help maintain that list.  Doing it manually would seem like a huge task!

Thanks for the tip about using preview.  I'm used to using markdown to format posts, just not having to preview to see changes - was wondering why it wasn't working.

Hope the boat restoration (pics?) is proceeding apace and your able to get it out this summer.  Maybe a boat thread in the appropriate category

lol, your the only one who has responded so far - I appreciated your feedback.

Cheers
