Overview

A reply describes daily and weekly cron jobs running AI deep research on watchlists and monitoring company events and insider activity.

Workflow

Suggested implementation: Configure daily and weekly cron jobs to trigger scripts that perform AI deep research on stock watchlists and pull baseline data. The user planned to adapt purchased 'skills' from a Substack for local AI execution on a MacBook. Human involvement includes setting up the automation and validating the AI-generated research outputs.

Reported result

No actual results, performance metrics, or completed workflows were reported. The user cited lack of time as the primary constraint, and the implementation remained unfinished. A measurable acceptance check would be verifying that the automated script successfully generates a research summary for at least one stock without manual intervention.

Human role

Source evidence is unavailable regarding specific human roles or division of labor.

Limitations

The only specific cost mentioned was approximately $300 per year for the 'Compound with AI' Substack, likely discounted. Source reliability is low as the original Reddit thread returned a 403 error, and the workflow was never completed. Human approval is required before acting on any AI-generated financial insights.

Try it

I want to set up a local automation on my MacBook to run AI deep research on my stock watchlist. First, create a Python script that uses a local LLM to analyze a list of tickers [replaceable inputs: e.g., AAPL, MSFT] for fundamental news and insider activity. Set up a cron job to run this script daily at 8 AM. Before scheduling, perform a dry run on a single stock [replaceable input: e.g., NVDA] and output the results to a markdown file [replaceable input: ./research_output.md]. I will manually verify the accuracy of this output against known market data. If the dry run is successful and accurate, proceed to schedule the daily job. If the script fails or produces hallucinations, stop and report the error logs. Do not publish or act on any financial advice generated by this script without my explicit confirmation.
