   Thanks! Yes, definitely, right now it is just opinions but we do want to analyze for actual sentiment (bullish vs bearish).

   We're in the process of building a backtest for our ratings. We'll be writing about how they perform soon.

   Agree with your point on the options spreads, but we wanted to gear our focus towards solely stock investments since that's the majority of the retail investor population. You're right about AAPL being too expensive (back at $600)

   We're pulling as much free data as we can but have plans to transition onto a paid data source as soon as we can.

   Thanks for the feedback. We're trying to serve the less educated investor so we take basic fundamental analysis and automate it while making the insights more accessible to someone who is less financially literate. It's interestin

    It is meant for individual stocks as of now. We're hoping it serves pain points for retail investors who need some hand holding when it comes to investing smarter.

    We're working on taking dividends into account since it is a huge factor when picking stocks.

    Thanks for the catches. We're still refining our data sources so we'll look into these.

    We're pooling a lot of disparate sources (Yahoo, Morningstar, NASDAQ, etc.)

    This is very interesting - thanks for pointing it out. I think one way we're working on being competitive is the breadth and depth of our research. Rather than just fundamental data points, we're working on integrating more compli

    Still very early stage, so we're working on collecting more data. Meanwhile, you can inspect sales growth on the financials - ex. 'Income statement for $TSLA'. If you're interested, shoot me an email at jay@pennywhale.co

    Private datasets is brilliant, great idea. As of now, updates aren't available but definitely could be in the future. We'd love to chat more and get some feedback! My email is jay@pennywhale.com

    Thanks for the feedback! We're definitely looking into interfacing with EDGAR as well as getting rid of the 'cashtag'. Mutual fund data is a great idea too - shouldn't be too difficult to tie in.

    Fundamentally, PennyWhale is targeted at a different market. While Bloomberg is tremendously powerful, it's also very expensive. We think there's an opportunity for the retail investors here.
