How can I quickly receive the sector of a stock?

How does the API calculate sector performance?
The API calculates sector performance by taking the average change percentage of all the companies within that sector. The change percentage can be found on the quote endpoint, while the sector information can be found on the profile endpoint.
Can I retrieve the 15 largest market cap stocks for each sector using the company-screener endpoint?
Currently, you can add the market cap parameter to the company-screener endpoint to filter stocks based on a specific market cap value, but the data will not be returned in sorted order from largest to smallest.
How do I get the industry information of tickers?

How are companies scored in your company ratings?

Where does your company source its financial data from?
We source our data from multiple places. Our primary channels include gathering financials and filings-related data from the SEC (EDGAR), collaborating with data partners for real-time and historical prices, and extracting data from news sources for datasets such as analyst estimates. We typically have 2 or 3 sources for most datasets to ensure data validity and reliability.
Do you have bulk endpoints where I can easily access multiple companies' financial statements?
Yes you can access our Bach and Bulk endpoints where you will access companies financial statements in bulk. For the quote endpoint you can also call the API with multiple tickers separated via a comma.
