Note the fiscal calendar so quarter-ends and guidance updates land correctly.\n\n### Step 3 — Baseline: what is already priced\n\nCall `bigdata_company_tearsheet`. A catalyst only matters relative to expectations — capture consensus estimates, current multiples, and sentiment so each catalyst can be framed against what the market already assumes.\n\n### Step 4 — Search for datable events\n\nRun **6–8 targeted searches**:\n\n- \"[Company] upcoming product launch roadmap timeline\"\n- \"[Company] regulatory decision approval date FDA / FTC / EU\"\n- \"[Company] lawsuit trial date court ruling expected\"\n- \"[Company] investor day capital markets day guidance update\"\n- \"[Company] contract renewal expiry major customer\"\n- \"[Company] debt maturity refinancing schedule\"\n- \"[Company] patent expiry exclusivity loss\"\n- \"[Company] index inclusion review lock-up expiry\"\n\nInclude the industry-specific ones that apply — clinical readouts, license renewals, rate cases, spectrum auctions, model launches.\n\n### Step 5 — Rate each catalyst\n\nFor every catalyst record:\n\n- **Date or window** — exact where known, quarter where not; mark undated but expected items as such\n- **Type** — scheduled or foreseeable\n- **Likely direction** — positive / negative / two-sided\n- **Magnitude** — high / medium / low, tied to a value driver where possible (\"~$Nm revenue\", \"~Xbps margin\", \"removes overhang on segment Y\")\n- **Confidence** — how sure the date and the outcome are; these are different, and both matter\n- **What to watch** — the specific signal that tells you which way it resolved\n\n### Step 6 — Rank and sequence\n\nRank by **expected impact**, not chronology — a large two-sided event in nine months usually matters more than a routine print next week. Then give the chronological calendar separately, so the reader gets both views.\n\nClose with the **2–3 catalysts that dominate** the next few quarters and what each would change.\n\n## Output\n\nFollow [assets/report-template.md](./assets/report-template.md) exactly — section order, tables, sources, and footer.\n\n- Add inline citations `[1]`, `[2]` immediately after claims, hyperlinked to the document URL.\n- Every deliverable ends with the **Powered by Bigdata.com** line and the **Disclaimer**, verbatim.\n- Default format is Markdown; offer a Word (.docx) or presentation version if useful.\n\n## Quality bar\n\nNon-negotiables:\n\n- Every catalyst carries a **date or window** — undated speculation is not a catalyst\n- Direction, magnitude, and confidence given separately; date confidence distinguished from outcome confidence\n- Magnitude tied to a value driver, not just labelled \"high\"\n- Ranked by impact **and** listed chronologically\n- Standing risks with no resolution date excluded — they belong in a risk assessment\n- Facts separated from analysis and implications\n"
