How Sifter fits together.

Find an idea in Research, run it in your Portfolio, write it up in Workspace, and build a record on the Training Floor. Every number links across the platform. Your portfolio stays private, and your Sifter Card is public.

Portfolio

Your private book, real-time.

• Private to you. Real-time on every position.
• TWR, alpha, beta, contribution to TE.
• Correlation matrix, drawdown, Value at Risk simulation.
• All holdings linked directly to Research.

Research

Build the case for every position.

• A ten-tab company page: DCF, comps, filings, analyst views and more.
• Macro tab tracks FRED data and macro events.
• Stock Screener across the FMP universe.
• 10-K and 10-Q filings link straight into your DCF.

Workspace

A doc builder that knows your data.

• Link any metric in the platform into a doc. Real-time.
• Templates auto-generate portfolio snapshots.
• Simulation blocks: Monte Carlo fan charts, sensitivity grids and scenario results.
• Export to PNG, PDF, or PowerPoint.

Training Floor

Build a record an employer can read.

• Four standardized exercises build your record: Sprint, Spread, Quarter, Book.
• The League, a fantasy stock game, lives under Competitions and is never shown to employers.
• Your Sifter Card: public, verifiable, permanent URL.
• Forward-only ledger. Game play never touches your card.

Campus

Peers, alumni, recruiters, events.

• Recruiters who read your record, not your resume.
• Realtime channels with classmates, alumni, and recruiters.
• Discuss: a board of ticker-tagged posts.
• Calendar links macro events and earnings calls.
