Data Sources

ImpliedLens labels the providers and calculations behind its research surfaces. Here is where the data comes from and how it is used.

📈
Yahoo Finance
finance.yahoo.com

Used for price history, OHLCV candles, current quote context, and selected key statistics. Data is requested from providers on each analysis request.

Price Charts Financials Valuation Inputs Projections Current quotes Earnings history Key statistics
🦉
Finnhub
finnhub.io

Used for analyst price targets, earnings surprises, recommendation trends, news feeds, institutional ownership, earnings-call transcript availability, and selected market metrics. All calls are server-side — provider credentials are never exposed to the browser.

SEC EDGAR
sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar

Direct access to official SEC filing data. Used for the SEC Filings section, which links to 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly filings, 8-K current reports, and DEF 14A proxy statements. All links point directly to SEC.gov — we do not store or proxy filing documents.

Data Freshness and Delays

Quote data from Yahoo Finance is typically delayed 15 minutes for most exchanges during market hours. Pre-market and after-hours data is available where provided by Yahoo Finance. Historical OHLCV data is end-of-day. Analyst consensus figures are updated periodically and may lag by 24–48 hours. Institutional ownership data from Finnhub reflects the most recent 13F filings, which are filed quarterly.

Reported, Derived, and Modeled Data

ImpliedLens separates provider-supplied observations from derived calculations and user-controlled models. Reported figures come from connected providers or SEC filings. Ratios, indicators, projections, intrinsic-value estimates, and wealth scenarios are calculations whose reliability depends on their inputs and assumptions. Missing provider fields are shown as unavailable rather than silently invented.

Important: Data accuracy depends on the upstream providers. ImpliedLens is not responsible for errors, delays, or omissions in data supplied by Finnhub, Yahoo Finance, or SEC EDGAR. Always verify critical figures against primary sources before making investment decisions.

Screener Data

The stock screener evaluates a curated universe of widely followed companies using current quotes and company metrics, then filters and sorts the results server-side. Results reflect the latest data available from upstream providers and may not capture every intraday move.

Market Overview and Movers

The homepage market overview requests current index and market-benchmark quotes through the same resilient quote pipeline used elsewhere in ImpliedLens. Preview market data does not count toward the daily analysis limit.
