Bloomberg Terminal is a $30,000/year scam and Perplexity will do it better for $20/month

Why pay enterprise prices for data you can get with consumer AI?

Perplexity is going full blitz on their Finance platform and I expect their capabilities to accelerate

Here are the top 4 power tools I use from it:

-Market search: Real time news and stock indicators. IMO most helpful for high level understanding of companies
-Financial data uploading: Most IR websites have raw PDFs and excels you can upload for precise RAG. Combine this with prompts to supplement the most recent news or data
-Scenario analysis: Quick and dirty scenario analysis (eg portfolio impact based on interest rate hits) without needing to go into Python
-Doc fetching: I hate clicking buttons to retrieve info. Ask for source citations on primary sources of exactly what you need (eg transcripts, SEC filings)

I fully expect the capabilities here to rival Bloomberg as Perplexity integrates more data sources....

We've seen retail come into investing in a big way in the last decade and tools like this will only continue leveling the playing field
