Using Norn / Insights

Insights

Insights is Norn's quant analytics table for every equity, ETF, and (where supported) crypto asset Norn tracks. Sort by Sharpe, filter by asset type, and drill into any ticker for the full detail page.

Open Insights from the sidebar or hit W. Requires Pro.

The table

The default Table view shows one row per asset with the columns you need to rank them:

  • Ticker and asset type badge (equity, ETF, crypto).
  • Sector and market cap.
  • Sharpe — 252-day risk-adjusted return.
  • Expected return — annualized, computed over the selected window.
  • Volatility — annualized standard deviation of daily returns.
  • Rank — percentile bar showing how the asset ranks against the tracked universe on the sort metric.

25 rows per page. Click any row to open Stock info for that ticker.

Sort & filter

  • Search — ticker prefix match, live-updating with a hit counter.
  • Asset type dropdown — filter to a single type (equity / ETF / fund / crypto). Empty means all.
  • Sort metric — Sharpe, expected return, or volatility.
  • Time window — 1M, 3M, 6M, or 1Y.
  • Order — ascending or descending.

The active filter set surfaces on the display pill at the top of the table so you always know what you're looking at.

TIP

The fastest way to build a candidate list for Optimize is to sort by Sharpe descending, filter to a single asset type, and copy the top 5–10 tickers.

Other views

  • Scatter — Sharpe vs. volatility scatter plot. Placeholder while we finalize the design.
  • Distribution — histogram of the sort metric across the universe. Placeholder.

Both views ship in a future release.
