How to get data on "Sales growth past 5 years"

Hi,

I found finviz.com's filter quite useful. I like to get similar fundamental data from quantopian.

e.g., giving these two simple filterings:
- market cap > $10 b
- Sales growth past 5 years > 15%

There are about 89 stocks:

How do I get "Sales growth past 5 years"?
I tried morningstar.earnings_ratios.diluted_eps_growth.latest, but the attached notebook only returns 5 matches.

There are other data I am interested:

  • Sales Q/Q
    -EPS past 5Y
    -EPS next year
    -EPS Q/Q

How to get them on quantopian?

Thanks a lot!
Kevin

Actually, I try using growth_grade and growth_score

growth_grade = mStar.asset_classification.growth_grade.latest  
growth_score = mStar.asset_classification.growth_score.latest

They still do not align with Finviz. I took some manual calculation and it seems Finviz's result is reliable.
I could use other tools to scrape Finviz's data. But I need to have historical data for backtesting.
