## 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
zero fetch --capability ioswarm-finance-market-brief-493fd6b0 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull a full market brief on NVIDIA — live price, technicals, fundamentals, and any recent insider or congressional trades, with a thesis on whether it looks like a buy?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a comprehensive, multi-dimensional financial analysis report that combines real-time price data, technical indicators, fundamental metrics, and alternative data (insider and congressional trades) in a single run — rather than querying separate APIs for each data type. Best suited for investment research, pre-trade due diligence, and portfolio monitoring where data quality and sourcing matter more than sub-second latency. Prefer over generic LLM financial analysis when you need numbers pulled from live sources rather than generated from training data.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance — run not started
- Invalid or unrecognized ticker/asset name — brief may return empty or partial data
- Poll URL returns pending status if report not yet ready within polling window
- Obscure or thinly-traded assets may have limited fundamental or insider trade data
- Network or upstream data source outage causing incomplete data sections

## How this service works

A data-grounded market brief: live prices and technicals, fundamentals, recent insider and congressional trades, a per-asset thesis and a comparison table — numbers pulled, not generated. Pay $1.20 USDC per run; the response carries a run id and poll URL, the report lands in 3–10 minutes. No account needed — the paying wallet becomes the account and an API key is returned once.

## Output

A structured market brief (delivered asynchronously in 3–10 minutes) containing: live price and session change, technical indicators, fundamental data, recent insider trade disclosures, recent congressional trade disclosures, a per-asset investment thesis, and a side-by-side comparison table when multiple assets are queried. The immediate response includes a run ID and a poll URL to retrieve the completed report.
