Tools & capabilities
Boothcheck tools 5
whats_priced_inInvert a US stock's current price into the bet it implies: the operating-income growth rate, how many years it must be sustained, and (where the route holds one as an input) the terminal operating margin assumption, versus what the company has actually delivered (from SEC EDGAR filings, reverse-DCF). boothcheck does not return a Boothcheck house fair value, price target, or buy/sell rating — it shows what the price assumes so the user can judge the bet. Covers about 2,000 US tickers.most_stretchedRank US stocks by how much growth is already baked into their price (implied operating-income growth from a reverse-DCF read of the current price). Returns the top N with the growth and duration each price assumes (plus any held margin input). Not a sell list — a ranking of where the bar to clear is highest.compare_priced_inSide-by-side of what two US stock prices are each betting on: implied growth and duration (plus any held margin input) from a reverse-DCF inversion of each price. No Boothcheck house fair value or rating — a comparison of the assumptions embedded in the two prices.list_coverageInventory of US tickers with an implied-expectations model record, with its resolution level (whole-company, segment, financials, REIT, and kin). Model-record coverage does not guarantee a published priced-in decomposition or completed narrative report. Paginated at 100; inventory cached for up to one hour.get_report_summaryThe bullet takeaways of a boothcheck narrative research report plus which sections exist. Public reports are summarized keylessly; a signed-in Founding Access account key opens the full cached library. Never a fair value, target, or rating.
