What I've accomplished

I produced an interactive Stock Card plus a documented research arc for the stock pick, and a 10-K workbook example that isolated a recurring revenue model and analyzed a $3.124 billion goodwill impairment.

Project breakdown

I chose Kohl's Corporation (KSS) from the Russell 2000 Value universe, applied the four-part analyst lens, recorded two ownership signals, and drafted a concise three-sentence growth thesis to seed a Stock Card for later stages.

I found the company’s latest 10-K, identified its recurring revenue model, analyzed a $3.124B goodwill impairment, separated company-specific risks from boilerplate, and used AI to organize and verify key disclosures into clear financial insights.
