About our data
Every number on Finance Desk has a source you can open. This page says where each kind of data comes from and how we keep it right.
What's in the dataset now
Prices
We pool prices from every venue we can reach, around the clock: Hyperliquid (including its builder-deployed stock, index and gold markets), Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, Coinbase International, Kraken Futures, Lighter, Aster and more. The pooled price is the volume-weighted median of the venues' prices, after dropping any venue more than 2% away from the others. Each instrument page lists every venue, its price and how far it sits from the pool.
For stocks, venue markets are 24/7 perpetual contracts that track the share price. They trade nights and weekends, so they show where a stock is heading before the exchange opens. They are not the official exchange price, and we label them as venue prices.
Open interest, funding rates and volumes are our own aggregation of the venues' public data.
Stories
Every story links to its original source: a company release, an SEC filing, a government statistics release or a news article. We summarise it in our own words and list the key facts, and you can always read the original. Stories are tagged to the companies, tickers, people, products and economic series they are about, which is how every page knows its news.
Company financials, filings and insiders
Financial statements come from the companies' own XBRL filings with the SEC (public domain). Valuation ratios combine those figures with our pooled price. SEC filings and Form 4 insider trades are read directly from EDGAR.
The economy
Economic series come from the US government's statistical agencies via FRED (Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis), BLS, BEA, the Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board. We only republish series that are not copyrighted by third parties. FRED® is a registered trademark of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis; this site is not endorsed by it.
Prediction markets
Odds come from Polymarket's public market data. Where more than one venue lists the same question, we show each venue's price and the average.
Corrections
If something is wrong, tell us and we will fix it and say so. Accuracy matters more to us than volume: when we can't confirm a fact, we leave it out.
