Stock Analysis produces a balanced, structured view of a single company. It is the workhorse Skill for “should I understand this stock better?”, covering the business, the financials, the valuation, and the risks in one coherent answer.

​
When to use it

  • Getting a complete read on one company
  • Forming or pressure-testing a thesis on a stock
  • Preparing before earnings or before a decision
For comparing several names, use Competitor Analysis. For a valuation-focused deep dive, use Valuation Matrix. For broad theme research, use Deep Research.

​
Framework

A Skill is not a prompt — it is a repeatable capability built on a specific, citable framework and run as real code. Stock Analysis grades financial strength with the Piotroski F-Score, a nine-point test of profitability, leverage, and operating efficiency, and screens distress risk with the Altman Z-Score, which combines several balance-sheet ratios into a single bankruptcy-risk reading. These scored frameworks run as real code, so the financial-health verdict is reproducible rather than improvised.

​
What it does

Stock Analysis pulls the company’s fundamentals, recent developments, revenue and margin trends, valuation, technical context, and sentiment, then organizes them into a structured analysis that separates facts from assumptions and lays out the key risks and what would change the conclusion.

​
Prompt template

Analyze [TICKER]. Cover business overview, recent developments, revenue and margin trends, valuation, technical context, sentiment, key risks, and what would change the conclusion.

​
Example

Analyze MSFT. Focus on Azure growth, AI capex, margin durability, valuation, and risks from cloud competition.

​
Review checklist

A good Stock Analysis answer should pass these checks:
  • Does it separate facts from assumptions?
  • Are recent events dated?
  • Are financial figures sourced?
  • Are the risks concrete, not generic?
  • Does the conclusion say what evidence would change it?
If any check fails, push back in the same conversation.

Follow-up prompts

Turn this into a one-page investment memo.

Tips

  • Focus the analysis. Naming what you care about (“focus on margins and competition”) produces a sharper read than a generic “analyze this.”
  • Ask for the disconfirming case. The bear case is often more valuable than the bull case you already believe.
