Data Buyers

Datasets backed by published research

Every dataset we sell is backed by research we publish: how much institutional flow moves the S&P 500, how early it shows up in 13F filings, how futures flow tracks the weekly CFTC report, and how our CPI forecasts compare with consensus. The flagship is investor flow: net buying and selling by institutional and retail investors in US equities, ETFs, options and crypto ETFs, and by investor group in global futures, from 1-minute bars to weekly totals. Factors turn it into ready-to-test columns. Global Macro Forecasts cover US CPI and other releases before the print, and we turn them into signals for rates and FX futures. Reference data completes the set. Every dataset is point-in-time and delivered by API, MCP or the Tesseract portal.

Flow

The data behind our market-impact and 13F research. Net buying and selling by investor type: institutional and retail in US equities, ETFs, options and crypto ETFs; investor groups in global futures. 1-minute, hourly, daily and weekly data, delivered in real time, 15 minutes delayed or at end of day. US equity history from 2007.

Factor Library

Our factor guide shows how Institutional and Retail Participation Share behaved in testing. With the Short Interest Indicator, they turn flow into factor columns: pre-normalized, comparable across stocks, scored and ready to test, so your team skips the pipeline and goes straight to research.

Macro

Forecasts beat consensus since November 2017. Global Macro Forecasts cover US CPI (headline, core and categories), PCE, payrolls, ISM, retail sales and sentiment, the first CPI forecast about 20 days before the release. The Macro Factor Library turns them into signals for rates and FX futures.

Reference Data

A point-in-time US security master (221,545 listings, 59,682 issuers, 21 venues, with corporate actions) and historical SIP bars at 1-minute and daily frequency from 2016, delivered daily.

Investor Flow Analytics

In our research, institutional flow explains 62.6% of quarterly S&P 500 variance. See who is buying and selling every US-listed stock, ETF, option and crypto ETF, split into institutional and retail, and how each investor group is positioned in global futures. Read the research.
