PunditPoorly

Pundits in the wild — graded, ledgered, audited. Talk is cheap. We track it.

Pundits make calls. The market answers eventually. We do the bookkeeping in between — translating every meaningful public-market statement into a synthetic portfolio position, marked to market, with full audit trail.

Each card below is a pundit or pundit-cluster we've catalogued. The methodology is shared across every product: the same conviction rubric, the same deterministic portfolio engine, the same correction layer where the audience help us get attribution right. Different pundits, same receipts.

We catch the moment they talked their book.

STOCK-Act PTRs and 13F filings give us the trade ledger. The pod transcripts we already ingest give us what each speaker actually said. Put them together and a new question becomes answerable: did the senator name NVDA on All-In before they bought NVDA? That join — pundit + ledger + window — is the angle. Politician and 13F scorecards are how we know.

How it works

  1. Transcribe. Every episode of every covered show, end to end. Whisper-base on CPU, RSS-sourced audio.
  2. Score. Each financial-instrument mention gets scored on two dimensions: claim strength (how forcefully the view was stated) and specificity (how testable the call is). The combination drives position size and which conviction tier the call lands in. We surface a qualitative tier (HIGH / MID / LOW) on every receipt; the numeric weights are operational and not published.
  3. Ledger. Predictions flow into a deterministic engine (v5.4 SPY-as-cash + 5 user-selectable methodology presets via BYOB) that opens, sizes, holds, decays, and exits positions over time per the v2.3 rubric. Real prices via yfinance, real holidays, real next-open execution.
  4. Audit. Every record has a 🚩 button. Spot a wrong speaker, ticker, direction, sarcasm-missed? Flag it. Corrections get voted on, reviewed by mods, and applied with full edit history.

The methodology page has the full rubric, the anti-gaming rules, the inter-rater reliability targets, and the changelog. Everything is published, including the misses.

Nobody asked. We ledger anyway. Public commentary is fair-use editorial material. We never republish full transcripts — receipt-style quotes only. Aggregate numbers are mostly accurate; per-host attribution is our best read with a community correction layer. Read the methodology before you treat any number as actionable.
