Asset or investible Something that can be bought or sold, such as a share, bond, fund, currency or cryptocurrency. Share or equity A share is a small ownership stake in a company. Its price can rise or fall. Entry or reference price A reference quote is not proof that a trade could be made at that price. Horizon or deadline The forecast time window. A saved deadline states when the outcome should be checked. HIT and MISS MISS means it did not meet those rules. These labels do not measure profit after trading costs. Estimates whose accuracy has not been established by testing A judgement that has not been shown to match real outcomes reliably. It is not a proven success rate. Calibration Checking whether stated chances match real results across many forecasts. An estimate can still be untested. Earnings or net income A company’s profit after its costs. Earnings reports show how much it made or lost. Bid–ask spread The gap between the price a buyer offers and the price a seller asks. A wider gap can make trading more costly. Spread A gap between two prices or rates. Check the items being compared: lending-rate gaps differ from buying–selling price gaps. Liquidity How easily an asset can be traded without sharply moving its price. For a company, it can mean access to cash for bills. Risk premium The extra return investors seek for taking more risk. ETF An exchange-traded fund: a basket of investments traded on an exchange like a share. Futures Contracts linked to buying or selling an asset at a set price for a future date. Their exposure can create large losses. Ticker The short code identifying an asset on a venue. Venue, currency and exact instrument still matter. Exchange or venue The market or trading platform supplying a quote. NASDAQ and NYSE are US exchanges; SGX is Singapore Exchange. Prices can differ by venue. OHLCV Price data showing opening, highest, lowest and closing prices, plus trading volume, for a stated period. Spot price A price for near-immediate delivery or settlement, different from a futures price. CPI Consumer Price Index, a measure of price changes paid by consumers. Check of how evidence affects the estimate Updating an earlier belief with new evidence. A posterior is the updated estimate; a likelihood ratio compares how evidence fits outcomes. A estimate based on judgement may have no tested calculation. Check of whether comparisons and shared evidence are suitable Related calls may share evidence, so one story must not count as several independent reasons. UTC and SGT UTC is a world time standard. SGT is Singapore time, eight hours ahead of UTC. Producer Price Index (PPI) A measure of prices received by producers. It differs from the consumer prices measured by CPI. Median The middle value when observations are put in order. Half lie at or below it and half at or above it; it is not a promised future result.","links":[]}]}
