Global·alt-data·composite·live
Six-signal alt-data momentum.
A company's real momentum, read across six independent signals in one call, hiring, insider activity, code velocity, public attention, consumer pull, and developer buzz. Each signal alone is noisy; the composite is a directional read on whether a company is accelerating or stalling. The kind of alt-data hedge funds pay five figures a year to access.
