At a glance

Compares leading tech stocks to separate hype-driven valuations from fundamentally justified ones and to flag undervalued names the market overlooks.

  • Works in 5 steps: Define Scope → Build the Comparison Set → Plot Growth vs. Valuation → …
  • Judging whether a tech stock's growth justifies its multiple
  • SKILL.md covers Workflow, Data Enhancement and Important Guidelines
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

The analyst workflow begins by confirming scope with you: the universe (mega-cap tech, the broader sector, a sub-sector such as SaaS, semiconductors, AI or cybersecurity, or a custom list), the comparison size, which defaults to 15 to 20 companies surfacing three overvalued and three undervalued names, the valuation framework and the time horizon. The framework choices are PEG, DCF, rule of 40 or multi-factor, with multi-factor as the default.

For each company it gathers growth, valuation multiples, profitability, margin trend as revenue scales, cash generation and capital efficiency, plus SaaS metrics such as net revenue retention, ARR growth and CAC payback where they apply. Companies are then placed on a growth-versus-valuation matrix. Overvalued names are priced for growth their margins or market cannot support; undervalued ones trade below peers on growth and profitability or have changes the price has not absorbed. Reference files hold the valuation framework and an output template.

When your agent uses it

  • Judging whether a tech stock's growth justifies its multiple
  • Looking for overvalued or undervalued names within a tech sub-sector
  • Comparing revenue growth against valuation across several tech companies

Example prompts

  • “Compare the mega-cap tech names and flag which look overvalued relative to growth.”
  • “Find three undervalued cybersecurity stocks using a multi-factor framework.”
  • “Analyze SaaS companies on rule of 40 versus EV/Revenue over the last three years.”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Define Scope
  2. Build the Comparison Set
  3. Plot Growth vs. Valuation
  4. Identify Mispriced Stocks
  5. Present Results

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8722415. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Tech Hype vs Fundamentals loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 119 tokens; SKILL.md has 512 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~119
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Tech Stock Hype vs Fundamentals Analyzer

Act as a valuation-focused technology analyst. Compare leading publicly traded tech companies to separate fundamentally justified valuations from hype-driven excess, and surface undervalued names the market is mispricing.

Workflow

Step 1: Define Scope

Confirm with the user:

  1. Universe — mega-cap tech only, broader tech sector, specific sub-sector (SaaS, semiconductors, AI, cybersecurity, etc.), or custom list
  2. Comparison set size — default: evaluate 15–20 companies, surface 3 overvalued + 3 undervalued
  3. Valuation framework — growth-adjusted (PEG), DCF-based, rule-of-40, or multi-factor (default: multi-factor)
  4. Time horizon — current snapshot or trend analysis over 1–3 years
Step 2: Build the Comparison Set

Gather and compute core metrics for each company. See references/tech-valuation-framework.md for calculation details and benchmarks.

CategoryMetrics
GrowthRevenue growth (YoY, 3Y CAGR), forward revenue growth estimates
ValuationP/E, P/S, EV/Revenue, EV/EBITDA, PEG ratio
ProfitabilityGross margin, operating margin, net margin, EBITDA margin
Operating leverageMargin expansion trend (are margins improving as revenue scales?)
Cash generationFCF, FCF margin, FCF yield, cash conversion ratio
Capital efficiencyROIC, ROE, revenue per employee, R&D as % of revenue
SaaS-specific (if applicable)NRR, ARR growth, Rule of 40, CAC payback, LTV/CAC
Step 3: Plot Growth vs. Valuation

Map each company on a growth-vs-valuation matrix:

              High Valuation
                    |
   OVERVALUED       |      FAIRLY VALUED
   (hype > growth)  |      (premium justified)
                    |
  ──────────────────┼──────────────────
                    |
   FAIRLY VALUED    |      UNDERVALUED
   (modest growth,  |      (growth > valuation)
    modest price)   |
                    |
              Low Valuation
   Low Growth ──────────────── High Growth

See references/tech-valuation-framework.md for the quantitative scoring model.

Step 4: Identify Mispriced Stocks

3 Overvalued (Priced for Unrealistic Growth):

  • Valuation multiple implies growth rate significantly above achievable trajectory
  • Margins or TAM cannot support the implied revenue path
  • Market is extrapolating peak metrics indefinitely

3 Undervalued (Overlooked Fundamentals):

  • Trading at a discount to growth and profitability peers
  • Margin expansion or business model shift not yet reflected in price
  • Overshadowed by larger competitors or suffering from narrative neglect

For each, articulate precisely what the market is mispricing and why.

Data Enhancement

For live market data to support this analysis, use the FinData Toolkit skill (findata-toolkit-us). It provides real-time stock metrics, SEC filings, financial calculators, portfolio analytics, factor screening, and macro indicators — all without API keys.

Important Guidelines

  • Growth quality matters: Not all revenue growth is equal. Distinguish organic vs. acquisition-driven, recurring vs. one-time, expanding TAM vs. market share gains in a shrinking market.
  • Margin trajectory > current margins: A company with 5% operating margin expanding 500bps/year is more valuable than one at 20% margin that's flat.
  • Avoid the "it's expensive so it's overvalued" fallacy: Some tech stocks deserve premium multiples. The question is whether the premium is sufficient or excessive given the growth and profitability profile.
  • AI/narrative premium: Many tech stocks carry an AI premium. Assess whether the company has genuine AI monetization or is narrative-surfing.
  • Stock-based compensation: Adjust profitability for SBC dilution — a company showing GAAP losses but "adjusted profitability" may be less impressive than it appears.
  • Competitive moats: Evaluate network effects, switching costs, data advantages, and ecosystem lock-in. Moats justify higher multiples.
