- Normalized standard SEC XBRL concepts, not a complete reproduction of the filed financial statements. Missing values are not zero.
- Values are unscaled USD, reported per-share units, percentages or ratios as labeled. Balance-sheet inputs are point-in-time observations; income and cash-flow inputs cover their stated durations.
- The latest filed values in the prepared model are used, including subsequent comparative revisions. Selecting an older reporting end does not create an as-filed historical vintage.
- Year-over-year changes require compatible periods. Percentage growth is not calculated from a zero or negative base; percentage-valued metrics change in percentage points.
- Reported inputs, calculated metrics and source-check dates remain separate. CFTC positioning, market prices and personal research assumptions are outside this summary.
- Securities brokers use common financials by default. Deposit-taking-bank ratios are not assumed to describe their business model.
