Changelog

Creator Leaderboard is now available to admins and moderators.

• ImprovedCreator Leaderboard moves to the staff menu, with access restricted to admins and moderators across the web, mobile app and API

My BullApe brings your saved stocks, meaningful research changes and the evidence behind each investment case into one place.

• NewYour personal briefing — follow research changes across your saved stocks over the last 7 or 30 days, with upcoming earnings shown separately from reported results
• NewOpen a stock's investment case to review its latest published reasoning, recorded opposing arguments and dated price, earnings, insider and congressional evidence
• ImprovedClearer source coverage — see when there are no matching records, when evidence is missing or stale, and when a source could not be loaded
• ImprovedYour personal workspace excludes third-party analytics and session recording, and offers retry controls when research cannot be loaded
• FixedAn open investment case stays in place while you add or remove other saved stocks, even if the watchlist takes time to refresh
• FixedResearch changes now retain HOLD updates, keep older calls from appearing current after contradictory updates, and preserve reported earnings when the upcoming calendar is busy

A watchlist on the web, a clearer line between graded results and hindsight, and tighter bookkeeping behind every pick.

• NewWatchlist on the web — save stocks from any stock page and see a dated feed of what actually changed for them: a new or reversed call, fresh evidence, an earnings report, a settled result
• NewCreator Leaderboard now sits in the Track Record menu for every signed-in member
• ImprovedThe daily email's button opens that morning's briefing itself, and signing in first brings you back to it
• ImprovedThe dashboard ranks picks by how strongly the models would trade them, and shows the case against plus which evidence was and wasn't available
• ImprovedHindsight is labelled as hindsight — a stock's highest price after a call is marked as a hindsight peak wherever it appears, apart from the graded 7-day result
• ImprovedCreators are graded on exact closing prices, with the stock and the S&P 500 measured over the same sessions, and counts separate distinct creators from repeat mentions
• ImprovedCleaner facts for the models — earnings growth isn't called a surprise unless there was an estimate to beat, and economic releases are shown as they stood at the time of the run
• ImprovedEvery run keeps a record of what the models were shown, so a pick can be traced to its inputs — groundwork for a funded paper portfolio that will only report results collected going forward
• FixedConfidence means what it says — portfolio moves that follow a fixed rule no longer show a 10/10 confidence they never had; only calls a model actually judged carry a score
• FixedA model that says buy and sell on the same stock in one run now counts as no opinion everywhere — dashboard, portfolio and grading alike
• FixedFewer silent gaps — half-finished video summaries are completed, filings that fail to load are retried, and closed trades missing their S&P comparison get it filled in
• FixedStricter portfolio books — when a top candidate fails a check the next eligible one takes the slot, and a position is never marked sold without a real price

Every pick's claim now gets weighed against the market data behind it.

• ImprovedA pick used to be judged on how strongly the videos pushed it. Now each one is also weighed against what the market already says about that stock — how it has moved against comparable assets, whether earnings just landed or are due inside the week, what company insiders have actually been filing, and whether the day's news mentions it at all
• ImprovedThis check runs alongside the published list rather than filtering it. It keeps its own record of what it would have picked, so we can measure whether it beats the current approach before we let it change what you see — which will take weeks of results, not days

Fewer gaps in the daily read: more videos analysed, and price history has its backup source back.

• FixedMore of each day's videos reach the analysis — when YouTube rate-limits our transcript fetches we now step back and return to them later, instead of retrying straight into the block and losing the video for good
• FixedPrice history has a working second source again, so a gap at the primary provider no longer leaves one in the record

Sharper market context for the models, and a track record that leads with results.

• NewLive macro context — every prediction run now reads the S&P 500, Dow, Nasdaq, VIX and the 10-year Treasury yield from the Federal Reserve's public data, alongside the day's headlines, so the models weigh the actual tape when they pick
• ImprovedBuy Leaderboard leads with the graded result — calls are ranked by what they returned at 7 trading days against the S&P 500, with the hindsight max run-up kept alongside as its own column and sort
• ImprovedCalls too new to judge now say so — a fresh pick shows the date it settles instead of sitting in the table as though it already has a result, and waits its turn at the bottom until then
• ImprovedPer-stock hit rates appear only once a stock has enough graded calls to mean something, so a single call is no longer summarised as a percentage
• NewTotal-return scoring — returns now count dividends, each call is measured against a benchmark that fits its asset class, and repeat calls on the same stock are counted as one thesis so the sample size is the honest one
• ImprovedCreator leaderboard is now scored the same way as our own calls: one vote per call, a fixed 7-day window, and every creator measured against the S&P 500 over that same window
• ImprovedThe daily email is a heads-up rather than a digest — what the morning list holds and one link to it, so the picks live on the site where they stay current

The Jobs Report page grew into a full Economic Calendar.

• NewEconomy page — every market-moving release in one place: jobs, CPI, PPI, PCE, GDP, retail sales, JOLTS, consumer sentiment, weekly claims and FOMC decisions. Upcoming dates with consensus, the latest prints with beat/miss, and revision history per report. Still built on free public data
• NewFOMC tracking — meeting dates straight from the Fed's calendar, the decision the minute the statement drops, and whether it matched expectations
• NewDiscord — the evening before a high-impact release the bot posts a preview with consensus; results post within minutes of release. /econ shows the week ahead from any channel
• ImprovedEconomy replaces Jobs Report in the top navigation; the old page still works

BullApe has a Discord, and a new page that tracks the jobs report.

• NewBullApe Discord — talk picks with other traders and the people who build BullApe. Join from the link in the header
• NewJobs Report page — next release date and countdown, consensus vs actual for payrolls, unemployment and wages, weekly jobless claims, and a history of past prints with revisions. Built entirely on free public data
• NewDiscord bot — the morning picks, earnings previews, the weekly scorecard, jobs-report results and release notes are posted to the server as they happen; /ticker, /signals and /jobs work from any channel
• ImprovedEmails now carry the BullApe logo and a recognizable sender
• ImprovedJobs Report added to the top navigation next to Earnings
