With the new Market Intelligence feature, you can create screens using the filters you care about — market data, financial metrics, and Hudson Labs forensic risk scores.

Below is a step-by-step guide to replicate some of our most popular Hudson Labs screens using the updated forensic risk score

High forensic risk score + large price run-up

By far, our most popular screen.

Go to Market Intelligence. In the filters on the left, select Risk, then Forensic Risk Score. Just like the legacy model, scores above 70 are high risk. The updated scores use a more robust model that incorporates 8-K data and improves risk detection, helping you identify issues earlier. Learn more here.

Next, select Stock Price Change. Choose a time period and minimum price change — for example, a 40% increase over three months.

Optional:

  • Adjust the default minimum market cap. Risk scores are available only for companies with at least $250M in market cap.
  • Add a Daily Volume filter to identify companies with sufficient liquidity.

Combine risk scores with traditional market metrics

Market Intelligence lets you combine qualitative risk ratings with traditional metrics. For example, screen for declining free cash flow and accounting issues in one view.
