About Major Stock Signals
What this site does, and where its numbers come from
Major Stock Signals pulls together the figures that normally take half a dozen browser tabs to assemble: live price and technical indicators, quarterly financials straight from regulatory filings, cash flow and balance-sheet health, dividend history with growth streaks, recent news, and a projection of where revenue and earnings may be heading.
The aim is explanation, not signals-for-sale. Every metric on a ticker page carries a plain-English definition, every projection states the method behind it, and anything modelled is labelled as modelled.
Where the data comes from
- Company fundamentals — filed quarterly and annual reports from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's EDGAR system. This is the same source the filings themselves come from: public domain, no intermediary, and it reaches back decades rather than a handful of quarters.
- Price and market data — quotes, price history and symbol search from a market data provider.
- Company profiles and news — business descriptions, key ratios and recent headlines from a financial data API.
Figures are cached for a period rather than fetched on every page view, so prices may lag the live market by a few minutes and fundamentals by up to a day.
What makes the fundamentals different
Most free stock sites show you four to eight quarters of financials because that's what the cheaper data feeds carry. Reading filings directly means the history goes back as far as the company has been filing, and the numbers are exactly what was reported rather than a vendor's reinterpretation.
That comes with genuine complications, which we handle explicitly: accounting tags change over the years, banks report revenue under entirely different concepts than manufacturers, cash flow accumulates through the fiscal year rather than resetting each quarter, and fourth quarters often have to be derived from annual totals. Our methodology page goes through this.
What this site is not
It is not a source of investment advice, and it makes no recommendations. It doesn't predict share prices. The revenue and earnings projections are statistical estimates of what a company may report, and they are frequently wrong — which is why each one is shown alongside its own backtested error rate rather than presented as fact.
