Comparable Company Analysis
⚠️ CRITICAL: Data Source Priority (READ FIRST)
ALWAYS follow this data source hierarchy:
- FIRST: Check for MCP data sources - If S&P Kensho MCP, FactSet MCP, or Daloopa MCP are available, use them exclusively for financial and trading information
- DO NOT use web search if the above MCP data sources are available
- ONLY if MCPs are unavailable: Then use Bloomberg Terminal, SEC EDGAR filings, or other institutional sources
- NEVER use web search as a primary data source - it lacks the accuracy, audit trails, and reliability required for institutional-grade analysis
Why this matters: MCP sources provide verified, institutional-grade data with proper citations. Web search results can be outdated, inaccurate, or unreliable for financial analysis.
Overview
This skill teaches Claude to build institutional-grade comparable company analyses that combine operating metrics, valuation multiples, and statistical benchmarking. The output is a structured Excel/spreadsheet that enables informed investment decisions through peer comparison.
