TGMCharts

Use first for any question about one company. Compact fundamentals summary for one ticker (~5 KB): latest close, market cap, valuation ratios, margins, returns, dividend record, and 3/5/10-year growth CAGRs, with as-of dates and applicability notes. Null values are honest gaps or sector-inappropriate metrics — never zeros.

Use to find the right metric slug before get_metric_series or get_chart. The full metric catalog: slug, label, unit, basis (daily/monthly/annual/quarterly/ttm — the stored sampling density, never overstated), methodology, and whether each metric is available as a JSON series (get_metric_series) and/or a chart render (get_chart). The same dictionary is the resource tgmcharts://metrics.

Use for a metric's history or trend (is the P/E high versus its past? how have margins moved?). Historical series for a TGMCharts-computed metric (daily valuation/yield lines, rolling TTM flows, quarterly margins). Points are even-time downsampled to max_points (default 120) to stay token-frugal — raw density is available at https://tgmcharts.com/api/v1/series/{symbol}/{metric}. points:null = intentionally withheld (sector-inappropriate, message included); [] = no stored history.

Use when the answer should show a picture of a metric's history. A ready-to-embed 1600×900 PNG chart of a metric's history in TGMCharts' house style (watermarked, as-of stamped). Returns the canonical URL — fetch or embed it directly (<img src=…>); it is edge-cached and needs no key. Sector-gated or empty histories render an honest explanation card rather than failing.

Use for line items as filed with the SEC (revenue, net income, cash flow, dividends paid, debt…) by year or quarter. Raw as-filed statement rows (income statement, balance sheet, or cash flow) sourced exclusively from SEC EDGAR XBRL company facts — public domain, latest-filed per period, honest nulls (never zero-filled, never vendor-backfilled). Derived quarters are disclosed. Token-frugal default: 5 fiscal years without per-value provenance; set include_provenance for the winning us-gaap tag + accession per value, or use https://tgmcharts.com/api/v1/statements/{symbol}/{statement} for full depth (30y, CSV).

Use to compare companies against each other. Side-by-side headline fundamentals for 2–4 tickers (latest values with as-of context): market cap, close, P/E, P/S, margins, ROE, dividend yield, and 5-year revenue/EPS CAGRs. Uncovered symbols are reported honestly, not dropped silently.

Use to find companies that meet conditions (cheap, high dividend, fast growth…). Filter and rank the covered universe (about 4,000 US-listed names) on fundamental fields (marketCap, peRatio, dividendYield, consecutiveYears, margins, 5y CAGRs, …). Returns at most 25 rows — the MCP tier's cap; the full screener lives at https://tgmcharts.com/screener. Units: yields, margins, growth and CAGRs are fractions, not percents (dividendYield gt 0.03 = above 3%; see the field description). Example: filters [{field: "dividendYield", operator: "gt", value: 0.03}, {field: "consecutiveYears", operator: "gte", value: 25}], sortBy "dividendYield".
