Anti-Fragility Screener
A Taleb-inspired stock screener that focuses on survival and avoidance of ruin. Find companies that can withstand chaos and thrive in uncertainty.
What We Measure
Leverage & Debt
How much debt does the company carry? Can it service that debt? Low leverage = more options when things go wrong.
Cash Flow Quality
Are earnings backed by real cash? High FCF margins mean the company generates cash regardless of accounting tricks.
Survival Runway
How long can the company survive without external financing? Years of runway = time to adapt and recover.
The Philosophy
"Focus on what can kill a company, not what can make it succeed. Survival is the prerequisite for compounding."
Inspired by Nassim Taleb's work on anti-fragility, this screener helps identify companies that don't just survive volatility — they benefit from it.
