High-Level Workflow

整体工作流程

The earnings update process follows 5 phases:
收益更新流程分为5个阶段:

Phase 1: Data Collection (30-60 minutes)

阶段1:数据收集(30-60分钟)

🚨🚨🚨 CRITICAL: TRAINING DATA IS OUTDATED 🚨🚨🚨
BEFORE STARTING - COMPLETE THESE 4 STEPS IN ORDER:
  1. CHECK TODAY'S DATE - Write down the current date
  2. SEARCH FOR LATEST - Use web search: "[Company] latest earnings results"
  3. VERIFY THE DATE - Confirm earnings release is within last 3 months
  4. CHECK TRANSCRIPT DATE - Verify transcript date matches release date
COMMON MISTAKE: Using outdated earnings calls from training data instead of searching for the latest.
REQUIREMENTS:
  • ✅ Search for latest earnings - do NOT rely on training data
  • ✅ Write down today's date and the release date found
  • ✅ Verify release date is within 3 months of today
  • ✅ Verify transcript date matches release date
  • ✅ If dates don't match or are old (>3 months), search again
See references/workflow.md for detailed search procedures and verification steps.
🚨🚨🚨 重要提示:训练数据已过时 🚨🚨🚨
开始前,请按顺序完成以下4个步骤:
  1. 确认当前日期 - 记下当前日期
  2. 搜索最新信息 - 使用网页搜索:「[Company] latest earnings results」
  3. 核实发布日期 - 确认财报发布时间在最近3个月内
  4. 核对文字稿日期 - 确认电话会议文字稿日期与财报发布日期一致
常见错误: 使用训练数据中过时的财报电话会议内容,而没有搜索最新信息。
要求:
  • ✅ 搜索最新财报数据——不要依赖训练数据
  • ✅ 记下当前日期和查询到的财报发布日期
  • ✅ 确认发布日期距离当前日期不超过3个月
  • ✅ 确认文字稿日期与发布日期一致
  • ✅ 如果日期不匹配或者时间过久(超过3个月),重新搜索
