Companies side by side,
winner by winner
The Compare module lines up to ten companies in one view and highlights the best number in every row. Chart their performance, compare dozens of metrics and settle the debate with hard data. This guide covers all of it.
One screen, four moving parts
The Compare page reads top to bottom. You choose companies once, then everything below (the chart, the table, the returns) updates to reflect exactly that set.
Pick the companies you want to weigh
Everything on the page is driven by this one choice. Add the companies you’re curious about and the rest of the module builds itself around them.
Try it: click a company to add it, or the ✕ on a chip to remove it.
Search by symbol or name
Open the “Add company” box and type a ticker like MEBL or a name like Meezan. Pick from the list to drop it into the comparison.
Up to ten at once
Stack as many as ten companies side by side. Two is enough for a head-to-head; more is great for ranking a whole sector.
Add and remove freely
Every company shows as a chip. Hit the ✕ to drop just that one, or “Clear all” to start over, and the chart and table update instantly.
Shareable by link
Your selection lives in the page address, so you can bookmark a comparison or send it to someone and they’ll see the same companies.
Every price journey, on one axis
In Change % mode each line starts at 0% on the left, so companies with wildly different share prices become directly comparable: you’re seeing growth, not rupees.
Illustration only. In the app the lines are drawn from real PSX price history.
Choose what the lines plot
One dropdown switches every line between price and other measures. Change % is the fairest way to compare growth; the rest show real, un-rebased values.
Choose the time window
Jump between preset ranges or type an exact start and end date. 1D streams live intraday ticks; All shows the full available history.

The number that wins each row
This is the heart of Compare. Line up your companies against dozens of metrics, and for every metric that has a clear winner, the best value is highlighted so the answer jumps out.
| Company | Price | Change % | Mkt Cap |
|---|---|---|---|
| MEBL | 245.60 | +1.8% | 440.0B |
| LUCK | 1,045.60 | +4.7% | 342.0B |
| SYS | 878.40 | +7.5% | 256.8B |
Try it: switch tabs and watch the best value in each column light up. Note how “best” means lowest for P/E, P/B and Debt/Equity.
Best isn’t always highest. For growth, returns, ROE and market cap, higher wins. For P/E, P/B and Debt-to-Equity, lower is better, so the smallest value is highlighted. Neutral fields like price and RSI are never flagged, and highlighting only appears once you’re comparing two or more companies.
Five tabs of built-in metrics
Switch tabs to focus on one theme, or stay on “All” to see everything at once.
Overview
Price, day change, volume and market cap: the headline snapshot.
Financials
EPS, book value, revenue and profit growth, and shares outstanding.
Ratios
P/E, P/B, ROE and Debt-to-Equity: the classic valuation and quality checks.
Price & Returns
Returns over 1W, 1M, 6M, YTD, 1Y and 5Y in one place.
Technicals
RSI, 50/200-day moving averages, 52-week high & low and average volume.

Add any indicator
The Indicators picker opens the Screener’s full metric library: hundreds of columns across every category. Search, tick, and they slot straight into the table.
Export what you see
Download the exact columns on screen as CSV or Excel to keep working in a spreadsheet or drop into a report.
Jump to the full profile
Every symbol in the table links to its company page, so you’re one click from the deep dive when a name stands out.
How much each one actually returned
A dedicated section that answers the real question, who made investors more money, across every timeframe, with a plain-English summary of the head-to-head.
Illustration only. The app charts real, corporate-action-adjusted returns.
Total Return
DefaultAssumes every dividend is reinvested. This is the truest picture of what a shareholder earned, and it matches how most data providers quote returns.
Price Return
Share-price movement only, dividends excluded. Useful for high-payout stocks where you want to separate price gains from dividend income.
Both are already adjusted for stock splits, bonus shares and rights issues, so a corporate action never shows up as a fake jump. A short written summary under the chart spells out how your first two companies stack up over the past year and five years.
Compare like an analyst
A few habits that turn a side-by-side view into a real decision.
Start with two companies for a clean head-to-head, then add more only when you’re ranking a whole group.
Compare like with like: pitting a bank against a cement maker on Debt-to-Equity can mislead, so keep the sector in mind.
Use Change % on the chart to compare growth fairly, then switch to Close Price when you actually care about the rupee levels.
Add the exact metrics you care about as columns, export to Excel, and open the standout name’s profile before deciding.
That's the Compare module.
