arbcon Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 looking at koyfin as an alternative to bloomberg. It's keyboard layout is similar. It' doesn't have transcripts and analytics are not at bloomberg levels, which I'm fine with. Any thoughts on a good place to get transcripts, sec filings etc, other than gurufocus or seeking alpha? What does everyone use?
arbcon Posted March 20, 2020 Author Posted March 20, 2020 how quick is bamsec in terms of transcripts? I have a call into them so will post response if I get one.
Spekulatius Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 TIKR.COM is the best, imo. They handle foreign stocks. Transcripts are included as well. None of the or the platforms does, at least not in the freemium version.
CorpRaider Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 I saw some SEC filings in the NEWS function on Koyfin (I just started playing around with it), but it seems like its just a link to the edgar DB. Do you know if it has like aggregated ownership share data? [like rocket, guru focus, or nasdaq] I like to see someone with capital at stake who has enough stroke to keep any eye on the hired helper managers. What's the deal/costs with TIKR? Says it has a waitlist.
Liberty Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Atom.finance has transcripts, as does unhedged.com RocketFinancial.com has interesting features and data too, and stockrow.com is pretty cool once you figure out the interface.

None of the or the platforms does, at least not in the freemium version. this is my gripe with koyfin, it doesn't really handle foreign stocks and it looks like it's for technical traders more than fundamental analysis.
CorpRaider Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 Atom.finance has transcripts, as does unhedged.com RocketFinancial.com has interesting features and data too, and stockrow.com is pretty cool once you figure out the interface. I keep finding like weird errors in Rocket...like a lot of them. Making me really uncertain. I just wish Koyfin had ownership and insider transactions, transcripts and sec source docs would be gravy. But I think it is super overall.
Spekulatius Posted November 30, 2020 Posted November 30, 2020 Significant update - Koyfin now covers foreign stocks. This looks very good after a quickly look: https://www.koyfin.com/help/release-notes/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=release-promo-11-20-global&utm_content=notes-b1
Liberty Posted January 13, 2021 Posted January 13, 2021 "I'm also excited to say that I've made my first ever private investment, and it's in Koyfin.com -- I've been DM'ing with Rob for years and living in the product daily, and I love what they've built and can't wait to see how it keeps evolving."
Liberty Posted February 5, 2021 Posted February 5, 2021 So Koyfin just got transcripts! I know many will find that useful: https://www.koyfin.com/help/release-notes/release-v3-2/
rkbabang Posted February 5, 2021 Posted February 5, 2021 Wow. I don't know how I missed this topic entirely until now. I signed up and have been playing with Koyfin this morning. Very nice! Thanks!
KCLarkin Posted February 5, 2021 Posted February 5, 2021 Very nice addition and the formatting is very easy to read. Thanks for the update Liberty.
Liberty Posted February 5, 2021 Posted February 5, 2021 Wow. I don't know how I missed this topic entirely until now. I signed up and have been playing with Koyfin this morning. Very nice! Thanks! Glad you like it. It's my main tool for financial data, has been that way for a couple years.
Liberty Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 I did an extended interview with the co-founders of the company (actually started it before I ever knew they were raising money, fwiw). Thought it may interest some here: https://libertyrpf.substack.com/p/interview-with-koyfin-co-founders They shared some cool wireframes and early version screenshots that show just how far it has evolved. I thought that was cool to see.
ValueArb Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 Excellent tool, thanks for the recommendation.
Liberty Posted June 24, 2021 Posted June 24, 2021 Big new release today: https://www.koyfin.com/help/release-notes/release-v3-4/
ValueArb Posted July 4, 2021 Posted July 4, 2021 I’m really enjoying QuickFS.net, it makes it super quick to review the companies recent by and long term before investing time in reading its filings.

Yeah, quickfs.net is the first thing I check to see if a company looks like something I would want to own.

Somewhere on his site he says that Bloomberg is horribly complicated and thus difficult. At least it has a search function. I just want to see Chtr's LTM EBITDA/EV alongside that of its closest competitors ... takes two clicks on TIKR.com but I've yet to figure out how to do it on Koyfin ... and there's no bloody help function. BB may be over the top, but at least there's help! For shits and giggles, try to google stuff like 'Koyfin how to get comparables' or 'Koyfin how to get company competitor estimates' ... impenetrable! Edited July 8, 2021 by Sunrider added last line
Spekulatius Posted July 8, 2021 Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) ^ The usability of Koyfin has gone downhill since the last major upgrade unfortunately. I believe the best way the get these charts is to create a template with the metrics as below: What I really like about Koyfin is the “today’s market” tab- itgives a great overview how various markets / segments are performing. I check it every morning. Overall, I prefer Tikr.com because it is easier to use and has some functions that Koyfin doesn’t have. The charting is nicer in Koyfin though. Edited July 8, 2021 by Spekulatius
Sunrider Posted July 9, 2021 Posted July 9, 2021 Yes, I don't even need these comparables as a chart - just a good 'ol fashioned table would do the trick. I mean that should be easy without having to define templates, etc. ... not like I'm looking for something exotic. I think Rob wanted to make it like BB (hence the command shortcut stuff) but a lot of BB is not about charts either, whereas KF seems very much plotting oriented ... but even that is a odd, I mean just getting an indicator on a chart (like CCI) is not intuitive (last time I checked) ... shame really ...
Liberty Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 I use the templates to graph out things like ROE and ROIC over time, margins over time, shares outstanding and revenue growth (at TTM and 5-year trailing CAGRs, etc), drawdowns from peak FCF/share over time, etc. You can do plenty of fundamental stuff with charts, and your brain can take it in a lost easier than a bunch of numbers (though you can go to the FH section if you want financials as numbers). f.ex. '''
Sunrider Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 So how do I do that quickly with as few clicks/keys as possible and how do I compare to competitors? I want to like this product ...
