Researching one stock means jumping across 5 apps? The CLI update lets you do it in one line.

Last week was earnings season.

Trying to figure out whether NVIDIA at 30x P/E is expensive or cheap?

Check historical trend → open another app for US valuations → log into a third platform to find analyst target prices.

One stock, five tabs, three apps, six different sell-side reports.

✨ Now? One terminal. One command at a time.

This update ships 20 new commands

Covering IPO subscriptions, earnings deep-reads, valuation positioning, and sell-side consensus.

• 🆕 Full HK + US IPO lifecycle — open subscriptions, grey market, listed, your orders, your P&L. All in one line.
• 📊 Three financial statements, line by line, in your terminal — income statement / balance sheet / cash flow, with YoY comparison.

• 💰 Account management, in detail — linked cards, deposits/withdrawals, short-margin by position.

Also fixed: paper-trading account misidentification.

The bug where auth status and the quote-package store misread the account type is now fully resolved.

Below is the full table of new commands, followed by 4 concrete scenarios.

Full update overview

Command-by-command walkthrough

Let's run through one stock's research flow to show what this update unlocks.

1. Pre-listing | ipo — Full HK + US IPO workflow

Scenario: It's Wednesday, 7 PM. A new stock lists tomorrow.

Who are the cornerstone investors?

Will the 6-month lockup expiring tank the price later?

How much higher is the grey market price vs. the IPO price?

Example commands

longbridge ipo listed — recently listed (HK + US, one screen)

longbridge ipo subscriptions — HK stocks open for subscription

Why this matters: Cornerstone investors have a 6-month lockup. When well-known long-only funds take cornerstone positions, that's usually a quality signal. The grey market vs. IPO price gap is the market's pre-pricing of the new listing.

2. Earnings drop | financial-statement — Three statements, straight to terminal

Scenario: Earnings just dropped after the close.

You've got 30 minutes to figure out: real growth or accounting magic?

Revenue +30% is easy to spot. But what if accounts receivable is also up 50%?

Goods shipped, cash not collected.

Example commands

longbridge financial-statement NVDA.US — income statement (default)

longbridge financial-report NVDA.US --latest — key metric summary

Why this matters: The number worth obsessing over is operating cash flow vs. net income.

Stack them side by side and you can call it in 5 seconds.

3. Pricing check | valuation-rank — Is 30x P/E actually expensive?

Scenario: 30x P/E — is that expensive?

It was 30x in 2020 too. But it dropped to 20x in 2024.

So where does today's 30x sit within the industry?

Example commands

longbridge valuation-rank NVDA.US — current valuation percentile within the industry

longbridge valuation-rank NVDA.US --start 20240101 --end 20260501 — stretch the window, see the trend

Why this matters: Tracking industry valuation percentiles over time reveals how market sentiment and pricing preferences shift across cycles.

4. Sell-side consensus | institution-rating — How analysts are pricing it

Scenario: You've made your own call on valuation. Now you want to see how the sell-side is pricing it.

The reports are scattered across 6 brokers. Pulling them one by one is exhausting.

Now? One command gives you the target-price curve over time.

Example commands

longbridge institution-rating 700.HK --history — target price range timeline

longbridge institution-rating 700.HK --industry-rank — industry coverage ranking

Why this matters: You see how analyst target ranges shift over time — not just one static snapshot of today.

More features worth knowing

• news search / topic search — keyword search across news and community discussions. Find the past threads you could never dig back to.
• Account tools: bank-cards for linked cards, withdrawals / deposits for cash flow history, portfolio short-margin for position-level short-margin detail.
