this looks neat, what's the data source and latency?

tolugenius•41m ago

Was just about to ask on data sourcing, I imagine yfinance is used but can't really tell for anything else (like for prediction markets or news data).

Looks like Yahoo and the SEC for filings: https://github.com/gloom-sh/gloomberb/tree/cd82b5c61a8d0eb0d...

What I pressume is the text for "Gloomberg" in the Hero header looks very fucked up

Hopefully it's not intentional

How much intent can you ascribe to any of this?

How well do you think their terminal works if they couldn't even spend the time to clean up their vibe coded website?

Your website is literally down.

And I don't think their website is that bad.

looks fine on my machine

Looks fine on my end (Firefox).

Yeah... people aren't paying Bloomberg $31,980 per year for a TUI. They're paying for the data source... and I don't think you have Bloomberg's connections.

mushufasa•23m ago

Correct. Also, Bloomberg has messaging for traders that is actually an important network effect in certain domains.

hmokiguess•8m ago

Can you elaborate on the network effect piece? Curious about that

It's really useful to have a chat app that is gatekept behind a 20k/year+ subscription. It's a particularly useful signal if someone is offering you a million+ dollar asset for sale.

sakimonkey•21m ago

it's a GUI and a TUI, pay attention to the screenshots

passivegains•11m ago

Does the GUI have Bloomberg's data source?

When I see new software now, my first thought is an LLM wrote it and it makes me not want to use it. I also assume there are bugs and it’s not particularly feature-rich.

ahahs•23m ago

my first thoughts too.

charv•26m ago

An aside - do tools like this (or what it's modeling, the Bloomberg Terminal) really offer that much benefit to finance folks?

Retr0id•1m ago

Bloomberg Terminal costs ~$24K per user per year, so the fact that people are paying for it implies it offers at least that much value.

what platform is that? looks fine on mine

Yeah, looks totally broken on my machine too.

> They're paying for the data source... and I don't think you have Bloomberg's connections.

We keep seeing hundreds of Bloomberg competitors mimicking the interface and they always forget that the chat (with the connections), data and the newsroom are the reasons why Bloomberg's network effect is close to impossible to break.

Using the Bloomberg Terminal is taught very early at colleges for any finance professional, which is how they get them as well.

hmokiguess•7m ago

Is it still though? I have a few finance friends and they all seem to be on TradingView these days

notpushkin•2m ago

I think it is more oriented towards retail investors (if anybody) than professional users. In theory it could compete with TradingView?

(I’d especially love to see some federated social feature built in!)

devin•11m ago

To be fair, I don't see anywhere on this page where they try to suggest that this is competitive with a Bloomberg terminal.

theodric•7m ago

Some of us are just here for the æsthetics! Plus I already have the SEA100 "Centerboard" with chrome accents, and this will help complete the look.

actually a lot of data is not included in the standard bloomberg license and you have to pay extra (mostly passing through to the data vendors) to get access to it.

There is not a single reason for Bloomberg’s dominance but the one feature that keeps people on it is the chat.

jimmydddd•3m ago

Financial companies are cutting down on the amount associates can bill the firm for a $30 dinner, and the time before they can have the firm pay for a $30 car ride home. They definitely wouldn't pay for Bloomberg if it could be easily replaced.
