Shrewd's your north star in markets gone wild,
Laugh off Mr. Market as fools beguiled.
Know your limits, stay cool, don?t bend,
Build riches slow - Shrewdness wins the end!

Very well thought out screens like this and YEY which has a 24.7% CAGR from 1987 till present but a similar
-67% MDD look spectacular as a backtest but are impossible for an individual looking at those drawdowns
to actually gamble his retirement nest egg in.

You would not put all your money in the screen, and you should have a written plan about how long you will stick with it for, so you don't give up.
