Overview

Best for investors who dislike paying any price for growth but still want strong business momentum.
Useful when the market is rewarding execution but punishing excess valuation.
Often a strong middle ground between pure value and pure growth.

How to use GARP Screener

1

Start with balance, not extremes

The goal is not the cheapest stock or the fastest grower; it is the stock where growth quality and price paid still make sense together.

2

Look for businesses the market can still re-rate

Candidates become more attractive when business execution is improving faster than valuation expansion.

3

Use sector comparison carefully

Judge a GARP candidate against its industry peers, because acceptable valuation varies a lot by sector.

4

Promote only technically healthy names

A cleaner trend helps you avoid owning fundamentally good names that are still under distribution.
