Some stock screens

It's coming up to ISA seasons so I've been looking for new ideas.  I typically use stock screens to help me whittle down the approximately 10,000 investable companies out there.  Here's a few of my favourites:

Dividend Screen
P/E less than 10x
EV/EBITA less than 8x
Divi Yield more than 8%
Sorted by insider buying


Quality Screen
10 year average RoE more than 10%
3 year average RoE more than 8%
P/Tan. Book less than 1.4x
5 year growth at least 0%
Sorted by insider buying


Interesting how many Hong Kong and Singapore names are in these lists, and how few US names.  This chimes with what anecdotally I've been seeing for a while.  Some ideas to followup on at least.
