saas-valuation-compression

by Finance Skills

Analyze how a private SaaS company's ARR valuation multiple changed across funding rounds, and attribute the compression or expansion to rate cycles and macro selloffs, growth deceleration, narrative shifts (including an AI premium), competition, and investor demand, benchmarked against private-market medians and peers. Use this skill whenever the user asks about valuation compression, ARR multiples, round-to-round valuation or multiple changes, down rounds, or wants to compare a VC-backed software company's funding rounds. Research the rounds rather than answering from memory.

funda-dataQuery Funda AI financial data via two surfaces: the MCP server at https://funda.ai/api/mcp for analyst-grade research synthesis (DCF, comps, earnings previews/recaps, sector deep-dives, SEC filings, transcripts, supply-chain mapping, ownership flow, macro framing) via the agent_chat tool — OR the REST API at https://api.funda.ai/v1 with FUNDA_API_KEY for raw data (real-time quotes, intraday candles, EOD prices, financial statements, options chains/greeks/GEX, supply-chain KG, social sentiment, news, calendars, FRED, ESG, congressional trades, AI hiring signals). Triggers: "funda", "funda.ai", real-time quote, stock price, intraday, balance sheet, income statement, options chain, DCF, comps, earnings preview/recap, analyst estimates, 10-K/10-Q/8-K, transcript, ownership flow, gamma exposure, supply chain, sector deep-dive, congressional trades, FRED. Prefer MCP for synthesis/analysis questions; use REST for raw structured data the MCP declines.1 installslinkedin-readerRead LinkedIn for financial research through opencli: the user's feed, and job search with location, seniority, job type, remote, company, and date filters. Use this skill whenever the user wants to check their LinkedIn feed, see what professionals or analysts are posting about a company, market, or earnings, gauge professional sentiment, or search finance and trading jobs on LinkedIn. Read-only: it cannot post, like, comment, connect, message, or apply.1 installsfinance-sentimentFetch normalized stock sentiment across Reddit, X.com, financial news, and Polymarket from the Adanos Finance API: buzz score, bullish percentage, mention or trade counts, and trend. Use this skill whenever the user asks how much a stock is being discussed or how hot it is on social platforms, how many Reddit mentions or Polymarket bets a company has, whether Reddit, X, and news agree, or wants to compare stock buzz and sentiment across tickers. Read-only: it never places trades or modifies anything.1 installshormuz-straitCheck the live status of the Strait of Hormuz from the Hormuz Strait Monitor dashboard: open, restricted, or closed status, tanker transits vs normal, stranded vessels, Brent price impact, war-risk insurance levels, cargo throughput, tanker freight rates, diplomatic developments, and global trade impact. Use this skill whenever the user asks about the Strait of Hormuz or the Persian Gulf in the context of oil, shipping, or geopolitical risk — whether Hormuz is open, chokepoint or transit disruption, Gulf tanker traffic, war-risk premiums, Middle East shipping routes, or energy supply-chain risk.1 installscompany-valuationEstimate a public company's intrinsic value with DCF, relative (peer multiple), and sum-of-the-parts (SOTP) methods, then blend them into an implied share price with upside/downside vs the market price, a WACC and terminal-growth sensitivity grid, and bull/base/bear scenarios. Use this skill whenever the user asks what a company or ticker is worth: fair value, intrinsic value, implied share price, a price target from fundamentals, whether it is overvalued or undervalued, building a DCF (WACC, terminal value, discounted cash flow), EV/EBITDA or P/E based targets, peer comparison valuation, or SOTP and conglomerate discounts. Run the model rather than answering valuation questions from memory.0 installsearnings-previewBuild a pre-earnings briefing for a stock from Yahoo Finance data (yfinance): the upcoming report date and timing, consensus EPS and revenue estimates with their range, the beat/miss track record, analyst ratings and price targets, and what to watch in the print. Use this skill whenever the user is preparing for an upcoming earnings report or asks what the street expects — consensus or whisper numbers, EPS expectations, whether a company will beat, an earnings setup, or an earnings-season preview — and whenever a ticker comes up in the context of upcoming earnings, even without the word "preview". For results that are already out, use earnings-recap.0 installs

yfinance-dataFetch financial and market data with the yfinance Python library (Yahoo Finance). Use this skill whenever the user wants stock data: current quotes and price history, financial statements (income statement, balance sheet, cash flow), options chains, dividends and splits, earnings and analyst estimates, price targets and ratings, institutional and insider holdings, news, multi-ticker comparisons, stock screens, or sector and industry data. Use it even when the user gives only a ticker symbol (AAPL, MSFT, TSLA) and the intent has to be inferred. For earnings previews or recaps, estimate revisions, valuation, correlation, liquidity, or ETF premium analysis, prefer the dedicated skill.7 installstradingview-mcpQuery TradingView market data through the bundled tradingview MCP server without a desktop app or login. Use whenever the user wants a technical analysis readout (RSI, MACD, Bollinger rating, BUY/SELL summary), multi-timeframe alignment (weekly→daily→4h→1h→15m), exchange-wide scans (Bollinger squeeze, volume breakout, consecutive candles, smart volume), top gainers/losers by exchange, futures market data (NQ/ES/CL/GC overview, overnight movers, category snapshots), pre-market / after-hours quotes, a quick options chain or unusual options activity (volume/OI by strike), bulk stock prices, a global market snapshot, strategy backtests (Sharpe, drawdown, win rate), or crypto exchange scans. Triggers include "TA on X", "multi-timeframe read", "BB squeeze scan", "futures movers", "NQ overnight", "pre-market price", "unusual options activity", "backtest RSI on AAPL", and "top gainers on NASDAQ". For options greeks, watchlists, alerts, or chart screenshots use tradingview-reader instead.4 installsskill-creatorCreate, improve, and evaluate agent skills (SKILL.md plus reference files). Use this skill whenever the user wants to build, scaffold, or design a new skill, improve or fix an existing skill that isn't working well, score or benchmark a skill's quality or run evals on it, or turn a repeated manual workflow into a skill ("I keep doing X manually", "can you remember how to do X", "turn this into a skill").3 installsearnings-recapAnalyze a company's most recent (or a specified past) earnings report from Yahoo Finance data (yfinance): actual vs estimated EPS, surprise size, revenue and margin trends, and the stock's price reaction. Use this skill whenever the user asks how earnings went — beat or miss, earnings surprise, quarterly results, the post-earnings move, or an earnings call recap — including casual references to a past report such as "AMZN reported last night" or "how did they do". For an upcoming report, use earnings-preview.2 installsstock-liquidityAnalyze how liquid a stock is using Yahoo Finance data (yfinance): bid-ask spreads, volume and dollar volume (ADTV), top-of-book and options depth, square-root market impact and slippage estimates, turnover ratio, and Amihud illiquidity, rolled into a liquidity grade. Use this skill whenever the user asks about liquidity or trading costs — how easily a position can be entered or exited, what a large order would do to the price, spread or execution-cost estimates, order book depth, volume patterns, or liquidity comparisons — especially for small caps, penny stocks, and thinly traded names.2 installssepa-strategyAnalyze stocks with Mark Minervini's SEPA (Specific Entry Point Analysis) methodology: stage analysis, the 8-condition trend template, fundamentals, VCP and other base patterns, pivot-point entries, market environment, and risk-based position sizing. Use this skill whenever the user mentions SEPA, Minervini, superperformance, the trend template, VCP (volatility contraction pattern), Stage 2, pivot or breakout entries, moving-average stacking (price above the 50/150/200-day MAs), breakout volume, position sizing from risk percentage, growth-stock screening or swing-trade entry criteria, or bases such as cup-with-handle, flat base, bull flag, or high tight flag. Also use it when the user asks "should I buy this stock" or "is this a good setup" about a growth or momentum name, or shares a chart for pattern analysis.1 installs
