The methodology, fully documented.

This paper documents a deterministic, multi-framework scoring system that grades every US-listed operating equity against seven canonical investor philosophies: Warren Buffett, Benjamin Graham, Philip Fisher, Peter Lynch, Joel Greenblatt, Charles Munger, and Terry Smith. Each framework is implemented as a transparent pillar-weighted rubric. Beyond the seven individual scores, we define a cross-framework consensus signal as the count of frameworks scoring a given stock at B+ or better. In the canonical cohort of stocks where all seven frameworks currently grade the company at B+ or better (n=47, drawn from a universe of approximately 3,085 stocks), we observe a median five-year price return that exceeds SPY's five-year return by 73.8 percentage points, with 85 percent of the cohort posting positive five-year returns. We disclose methodological limitations including survivorship and look-ahead bias, present per-framework standalone cohort results, and discuss why an ensemble of philosophically distinct lenses might select for business quality more robustly than any single lens.

This paper documents the computational implementation of AAOIFI Sharia Standard No. 21 across the full US-listed equity universe of approximately 12,500 active tickers. The methodology operationalises the four canonical tests of the standard: a primary-business activity screen against an industry exclusion list, a leverage screen requiring interest-bearing debt to remain below thirty-three percent of market capitalisation, a non-permissible-income screen requiring revenue from prohibited sources to remain below five percent of total revenue, and a liquid-assets screen. We document approximately 1,500 Sharia-compliant operating equities (a compliance rate of approximately 12 percent), compare the sector composition of the compliant cohort against the S&P 500 to characterise the structural sector tilt, and intersect the compliant cohort with the seven-framework value-investing consensus signal to test whether Sharia constraints are in tension with quality-investing constraints. The intersection produces a smaller but materially overlapping cohort, indicating the two screens are not mutually exclusive.
