Market Signal Analysis

Use this skill to understand market behavior around a target. It should describe signals and regimes, not pretend that price movement proves future returns.

Workflow

1. Load the target profile, peer set, and existing market evidence.
2. Collect current market data when the user asks for recent, latest, or current conditions.
3. Compare performance across relevant windows: 1D, 5D, 1M, 3M, YTD, 1Y, and since major events when useful.
4. Compare against peers, sector ETF, and broad market benchmark.
5. Inspect volume, volatility, drawdown, valuation, short interest, and options signals when available.
6. Save a market note under research/targets/<target>/evidence/market/.
7. Hand off notable signals to thesis and risk skills.
