## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh

Example prompt: Pull up the balance sheet for Apple (AAPL) so I can see their total assets, liabilities, and shareholder equity.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need fundamental financial data — specifically balance sheet line items — for a publicly traded company. Prefer this over income statement or cash flow endpoints when the user asks about assets, liabilities, debt levels, equity, or the overall financial position of a company. Best for equity research, fundamental analysis, and financial health assessments.
