DataHero Provides US Stock Analysis Service 'WallgaHero' to Kiwoom Securities

[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] DataHero announced on the 25th that it has signed a supply contract for the U.S. stock analysis service ‘Wall Street Hero’ with Kiwoom Securities.

The Wall Street Hero service is a U.S. stock analysis, diagnosis, and discovery service developed by DataHero by applying big data analysis technology and stock analysis algorithms.

The core services of Wall Street Hero are stock diagnosis and recommendation/analysis services. Stock diagnosis provides an investment attractiveness score by reflecting 10 years of financial statements, investment indicators, valuation, and securities firm consensus for 5,000 U.S.-listed companies. Past return testing results show that the higher the investment attractiveness score, the higher the returns.

The investment attractiveness score is updated daily. It evaluates companies’ earnings growth, dividend attractiveness, financial safety, business monopoly power, and cash generation ability to provide investment attractiveness scores for all U.S.-listed companies. Detailed items of a company’s investment attractiveness include evaluation indicators for each item and average values of the industry and all companies, allowing investors to compare a company’s investment attractiveness at a glance with the same industry and all companies.

Information is also provided for investors interested in dividends. It offers a ranking list of dividend-attractive stocks and time-series charts of individual companies’ dividend yield, dividend payout ratio, and dividends per share. Additionally, it provides financial charts that show basic investment data such as financial statements and investment indicators, as well as 10 years of past financial information in time-series charts.

Kim Injoong, CEO of DataHero, said, “Although the scale of domestic investors’ U.S. stock investments is growing significantly every year, both the quantity and quality of information provided compared to domestic stock investment information are greatly insufficient. In particular, we created this service to eliminate the inconvenience of investors having to visit English-language sites to view U.S. stock data and information and to provide the joy of investing every night.”

DataHero has launched the Wall Street Hero service with Kiwoom Securities and is negotiating supply contracts with multiple securities firms. It plans to finalize contracts with major securities firms within the first half of the year and provide the Wall Street Hero service to customers.
