• portfolio_returns

  Look up how a portfolio, strategy or fund actually returned: seasonality by calendar month (average return, share of positive months, number of years and a t-statistic so a thin 'September effect' is not presented as a law), calendar-year returns with partial years labelled (opt…

• portfolio_risk

  Answer both 'how bad did it get' and 'is it really diversified' for a built-in model portfolio, a canonical strategy or your own portfolio. Drawdowns: the deepest peak-to-trough episodes with months to trough and recovery, Ulcer index, longest time underwater, monthly VaR/CVaR 9…

• fund_history

  Tell how far back a fund can be tested on MarketHeist once its history is extended with older substitute funds: the proxy chain (e.g. VXUS <- VGTSX), the extended start month, the ETF's own first month and, for the 26 funds with a history page, how closely each stand-in tracked…

• decompose_factors

  Explain WHAT DRIVES the returns of a ticker, ETF or built-in portfolio by decomposing them into common factor exposures (market, size, value, momentum, quality, low-volatility, duration, credit) plus an idiosyncratic residual. Use this when the user asks why two assets move toge…

• run_backtest

  Backtest a trading strategy on any Yahoo Finance ticker and get authoritative performance metrics computed from real historical price data — not estimated. Use this whenever the user asks how a strategy or indicator would have performed, or for a ticker's Sharpe, CAGR, max drawd…
