That helps. I was not enclosing the l1 in quotes - I think the examples were without quotes.

This is a great retrieval template. Thank you.

It works great with NASDAQ listed securities but doesn't seem to work with anything tickers listed on the NYSE. Has anyone been able to fix this?

Has anyone try to build Joel <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joel_Greenblatt>
Greenblatt ISBN 0-471-73306-7
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:BookSources/0471733067> , Magic
formula investing as described in wikipedia.org using the SMF-Adddin?

Greenblatt suggests purchasing 30 "good companies": cheap stocks with a high
earnings yield <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earnings_yield> and a high
return on capital <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Return_on_capital> . He
touts the success of his magic formula in his book 'The Little Book that
Beats the Market ', Joel <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joel_Greenblatt>
Greenblatt ISBN 0-471-73306-7
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:BookSources/0471733067> , citing that
it does in fact beat the S <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%26P_500> &P 500
96% of the time, and has averaged a 17-year annual return of 30.8%
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_Formula_Investing#cite_note-1> [1]

I am more of a trader than an investor but I'd be interested in the
results.

This link provides some detail to the formula.

Gurufocus has a link for the magic formula investing but is a premium
service which I do not have.

Calculation/Definition of the Magic Formula:

1. Define minimum Market Capitalization that meets your liquidity needs.
Greenblatt used a market capitalization floor of $50 million, but advised
that you can set the minimum as high as $5 billion.
2. Sector Filter: Due to their unique financial structures, all stocks in
the financial and utility sectors are excluded. Calculate Earnings Yield =
EBIT / enterprise value.
3. Calculate Return on Capital = EBIT / (Net fixed assets + working capital)
4. EY Rank: Rank the stocks in descending order based on Earnings Yield and
assign a rank number to each.
5. ROC Rank: Rank the same stocks in descending order based on Return on
Capital and assign a rank number to each.
6. Add the rankings and select stocks that have the lowest combined ranking
score. So a company that is ranked 358nd best in terms of ROC and 122rd
highest in EY would gets a better combined ranking (i.e., 470) than a
company that is ranked 1st in ROIC but only 950th best in EY (i.e., 951).

I wrote a screening routine in VBA for the Magic Formula which used SMF and ranked all the Finviz tickers, 5000 or 6000 or so, against greenblatt&#39;s criteria. It used advfn data though, so it stopped working a couple months ago. I use Thomson Reuters premium data now.

The formula for return on capital is actually much more complicated. He
never does fully define it in his book.

A Yahoo group on the topic:

http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/magicformulainvesting/info

A good blog on the topic:

http://justadrone.blogspot.com

And the man himself:

http://www.magicformulainvesting.com

The "Greenblatt&quot; ranking on Portfolio123.com uses:

OpIncAftDepr(0,TTM)/( NetPlant(0,qtr)+ Recvbl(0,qtr)+ Inventory(0,qtr))
OpIncAftDepr(0,TTM)/ $EV

I think $EV is defined as:

MktCap+ DbtTotQ-CashEquiv(0,QTR) + PfdEquity(0,QTR) + NonControlInt(0,QTR)
