01 · Gather
Read every relevant market source.
Ingest prices, filings, fundamentals, private funding, policy, and economic releases continuously.
Sectors / Financial
Financial decisions begin with knowing what is actually true.
Prices, filings, company fundamentals, private funding, and macroeconomic releases arrive at different speeds and contradict one another. We turn them into a source-linked financial knowledge base and a defensible forward view.
Research
Financial information is abundant but temporally messy. Prices differ across venues, company identifiers drift, filings are amended, private transactions are partially disclosed, and economic releases are revised after decisions have already been made.
We reconcile the record before interpreting it. KOR is a financial-data and research firm, not a trading desk: the output is reliable context and a reasoned view of what may happen next, not execution or high-frequency signals.
Questions Worth a Clean Answer
Ask hard. Answer with clean data.
- Q01When vendors disagree on the same company, instrument, or transaction, which value is best supported by the source record?
- Q02Which changes in funding, credit, demand, or policy are material enough to alter the forward view?
- Q03How would an investment thesis have changed if every later revision and restatement had been known at the time?
The Method — A Continual Loop
Gather, organize, refine, test, prioritize — repeat.
02 · Organize
Resolve entities and time.
Link companies, instruments, events, revisions, and sources into one historical record.
03 · Refine
Reconcile the contradictions.
Compare competing values, remove duplicates, explain revisions, and preserve uncertainty.
04 · Test
Check the interpretation.
Backtest claims against later disclosures, realized outcomes, and independent sources.
05 · Prioritize
Surface decision-relevant change.
Rank developments by materiality, urgency, and confidence for research teams.
The Cascade
The market feedback cycle.
Markets aren't a straight line — they're a loop that tends toward equilibrium. A breakthrough pulls in R&D, suppliers, capacity, and adoption; revenue draws investment and a flood of capital; new entrants build oversupply; margins compress, a shakeout follows, prices cool — and the survivors seed the next breakthrough. Clean data is how we read where in the loop we are.
Select any step to highlight it. The solid ring is the cycle; dashed lines are feedback toward equilibrium.
What the Core Delivers
Knowledge you can act on.
- A reconciled market, company, private-capital, and macroeconomic record with provenance.
- Research that separates durable change from short-lived market noise.
- A defensible forward view grounded in clean data rather than isolated signals.
