Added Analyst Ratings REST and Streaming API endpoints

Product Updates
July 1, 2023

By Acuity Trading

Acuity Analyst Ratings API service includes the Analyst Consensus data that we retrieve about global stocks and update on a daily basis.

We collect this information programmatically from a large number of news oriented websites, press releases and other resources that publish the analyst ratings principally through news stories (provided by brokers, banks, and other financial organizations).

Having a large number of ratings with these data points allows us to aggregate them. For the ratings that we retrieve, we:

  1. Check which stocks have received a new rating in a given week
  2. Retrieve all the ratings for this stock for the past 3 months
  3. Based on the ratings received, we group them into Sell/Hold/Buy “buckets”, and based on the mean of these ratings provide a consensus (e.g., Moderate Sell if there are a few Sell and a few Hold ratings, a Strong Buy if there are predominantly Buy ratings etc).

It’s possible to retrieve this data on-demand using a REST API, and also to subscribe to updates in real-time via the Streaming API.
