Beyond the price.
Bloomberg shows you data. You still need to know what it means. Argus agents synthesize across multiple sources and surface a conclusion with a conviction score, bull and bear cases, and the level that would invalidate the idea.
The Employment & Inflation agent pulls the latest unemployment, payrolls, and CPI prints from FRED, the Federal Reserve's own database, and explains what each one means for the Fed's next move and for your holdings.
Bloomberg's AI features are retrofitted onto a 40-year-old data infrastructure. Argus was designed from the ground up as an agent-based system, the AI isn't a query layer, it's the architecture. An 8-stage quant engine underneath scores your holdings on trend, backtested win rate, fundamentals, and portfolio fit.
Bloomberg requires an annual contract, dedicated hardware, and typically an institutional IT setup. Argus runs in any browser. No hardware, no training period, no annual commitment. Institutional-quality intelligence available to any serious trader at $19/month.
