# Macro

> Macro pairs a terminal-grade stock research workspace with AI agents that track your investment theses around the clock.

Macro is a stock research tool for US (NYSE, NASDAQ) and Australian (ASX) listed stocks. It combines a terminal-grade workspace (watchlists, a screener, security pages, news) with AI research agents. You give an agent an investment thesis; on a schedule (hourly, daily) or on demand it pulls live quotes, fundamentals and news, forms a sentiment view, ranks tickers by conviction and flags risks, explaining what it found and where it came from.

Mission: to raise financial literacy, helping people understand what they own, and why they own it, rather than investing blindly on headlines, hot tips or hype. The research tools that used to belong to institutions should be in the hands of every investor.

Macro is a research tool. It does not provide financial advice, does not connect to brokerages and never places trades.

## Basic Information

- Name: Macro
- What it is: a web app for stock research, with AI research agents, AI chat, a screener, security pages and a news feed
- Markets: US (NYSE, NASDAQ) and Australia (ASX). ASX tickers use the .AX suffix (e.g. BHP.AX)
- Platform: Web
- App: https://macro-web-nu.vercel.app
- Availability: account creation is currently closed. Existing users can sign in at the app

## How It Works

1. **Build your watchlists**: Search any US or ASX ticker and organise lists your way. Prices and sparklines stay live.
2. **Launch an agent**: Describe a theme, pick a ticker universe and choose hourly or daily. Or run it on demand.
3. **Read the thesis**: Each run streams back a sentiment call, ranked holdings with conviction scores and the risks to watch.

## AI Agents

- **Setup**: give an agent a topic (for example "Nuclear Renaissance" or "AI Chips Alpha"), a ticker universe and a cadence. That's the whole setup.
- **Each run** follows a fixed research loop: understand the topic, pull live quotes, fundamentals and news, form a sentiment view, rank tickers by conviction, and flag the risks.
- **Output**: a sentiment call and a ranked list of holdings, each with a conviction score and a reason. Results stream into the agent's chat and its tracking table, and every finding explains where it came from.
- **Cadence**: hourly, daily, or on demand. Scheduled runs happen server-side, so no tab needs to stay open.

## Workspace Features

- **AI chat**: Ask anything and get tables and charts back. Chat pulls live data with tools and answers with rich cards: quotes, fundamentals, peer comparisons and news.
- **Security pages**: Every number on one screen: charts across every timeframe, fundamentals, financials and earnings for any US or ASX ticker.
- **Screener**: Sort and filter by sector, market cap and valuation across US and ASX listings in one table.
- **News & Reddit**: AI-curated news tagged to your watchlist, plus Reddit mention trends and sentiment per ticker.
- **Watchlists**: US and ASX tickers side by side in the same lists, with live prices and sparklines.

## Example Agent Theses

- **The Atomic Comeback**: Tracks the nuclear restart as AI data centres lock in power, from US utilities to ASX uranium.
- **Picks and Shovels**: Follows AI inference spend to the chip, network and memory names that get paid whoever wins.
- **Lithium's Long Winter**: Watches Aussie lithium for a bottom, weighing fresh supply against a slower EV rollout.
- **Gold's New Floor**: Positions for gold as rates fall, with central banks buying and inflation refusing to cool.
- **The GLP-1 Economy**: Maps who wins and loses as weight-loss drugs go mainstream, from pharma to the snack aisle.

## FAQ

- **Which markets does Macro cover?** US listings on NYSE and NASDAQ, and Australian listings on the ASX. Both live side by side in the same watchlists, screener and agents.
- **What does an agent actually do?** On every run it follows a fixed research loop: understand the topic, pull live quotes, fundamentals and news, form a sentiment view, rank tickers by conviction, and flag the risks. Results stream into the agent's chat and its tracking table.
- **How often do agents run?** You choose: hourly, daily, or manually whenever you hit Run. Scheduled runs happen server-side, so you don't need to keep a tab open.
- **Can Macro place trades for me?** No. Macro is a research tool. It never connects to a brokerage or executes orders.
- **Is this financial advice?** No. Agent output is AI-generated research to inform your own decisions. Always do your own due diligence.
