InsiderInsights Launches InsiderApp and Research on the Bloomberg App Portal

June 27, 2017

New data and analytics software gains access to financial market community through the Bloomberg Terminal


June 27, 2017 — InsiderInsights, the next generation of insider trading analytics, today announced its InsiderApp, Research and Headline Alerts is now available on the Bloomberg App Portal at {APPS ININ <GO>}.

Through the InsiderApp on the Bloomberg App Portal, InsiderInsights extends its services to Bloomberg Terminal subscribers. InsiderApp gives investors insight into the sentiment company executives and directors have about the value of their own companies’ shares. Using this analysis and other market indicators, investors can make more informed investment decisions.

Recognizing that executives at publicly traded companies have an advantage when trading their own company’s shares, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 mandated that company “insiders” disclose certain details of their trades. This publicly-filed “insider data” generates investment intelligence, and investment professionals commonly incorporate insider data analysis as a factor in equity research.

By combining value-added insider data, a full statistical array of insiders’ track records, and independently validated Insider Ratings on the same screen, InsiderApp saves investors time and can improve results.

“We’ve reengineered this foundational research input from the bottom up, making it easier to remove the noise from insider data and see a clearer picture of insiders’ sentiment on shares,” explains Jonathan Moreland, Director of Research at InsiderInsights and author of Profit from Legal Insider Trading (Dearborn 2000). “InsiderApp’s depth of capabilities will appeal to longer-term investors, while traders can rely on its real-time data and Headline Alerts.”

Bloomberg Terminal subscribers around the globe can access the Bloomberg App Portal at {APPS <GO>}, and search a library of applications that help them analyze and visualize market trends, evaluate securities, and calculate risk. Applications are licensed separately and run within the Bloomberg Terminal desktop, which simplifies and streamlines the users’ workflow.

To provide seamless navigation between insider data and research content, the InsiderApp works alongside a companion data set, called Research Reports and Headline Alerts, available on the Bloomberg Terminal at {ININ <GO>}. In addition, InsiderApp links to other related functions on the Bloomberg Terminal, which unifies workflow and enhances data discoverability.

“We’re thrilled to finally bring our proprietary data and analytics to Bloomberg Terminals,” added Mr. Moreland. “The democratization of financial data has led to its mediocrity in so many areas, and nowhere more so than with insider data,” he points out. “Commodity insider feeds are full of noise and time-consuming to analyze, and last decade’s simplistic scoring methods have been wrung of alpha. We’re pleased to have made a foundational piece of research data relevant and usable. Our commitment to delivering insider sentiment and making it easier to use as an investing factor is relentless.”
