If FMP has no figure for a ticker, a price or fundamental may come from a Yahoo Finance fallback, or a price from an Alpaca fallback. SEC EDGAR is used only for filing links and company identity details (legal name, address), never for figures. MoonshotScore V2 rates eligible US-listed companies from 0 to 100 against their sector peers on five pillars: Business Quality (weight 26), Financial Safety (weight 20), Valuation (weight 18), Growth Durability (weight 16) and Momentum (weight 12). It reads no news-sentiment or analyst data, and it is not a probability of future returns. 21,000+ US companies analyzed ## About the Semiconductor Stocks list This list shows 24 stocks listed in the US, drawn from 47 US common-stock listings the FMP screen returned as of 2026-10-09. Each row links to the stock's own page. Methodology ## How the list is built Stocks come from the Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) stock screener: listed in the US, actively trading, not an ETF or fund, in FMP's "Technology" sector, in FMP's "Semiconductors" industry, market cap above $1B, share price above $5, daily volume above 300,000 shares. FMP returns up to 50 matches; the first 30 US common-stock listings among them are scored. The list is ordered by a composite of market cap ÷ $10B (capped at 20) plus 2 × the positive day change plus 20 × FCF yield. It keeps at most 24 stocks. FMP's screener returned no day change for these stocks, so the day-change term added nothing when this list was built. Screen figures (order, market cap, P/E) as of 2026-10-09 (FMP), the day the list was built; MoonshotScore as of 2026-10-09. The table's price, day change and market-cap columns show the latest FMP quote when one is available, dated in the table caption. The MoonshotScore column shows each stock's stored MoonshotScore with its date; it is not the sort key. - [Full methodology →](https://www.stockexpertai.com/methodology) ## Names rising to the top of the screen The strongest names remain easy to scan without losing the valuation context behind the ranking. *Names rising to the top of the screen — ranked by a size, day-move and cash-flow composite (formula under "How the list is built"); MoonshotScore is not the sort key.
