## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

### Simply Wall Street Narrative Scraper 

Specialized data extraction tool designed to capture the "investment stories" and valuation models shared by the Simply Wall Street community.

Unlike standard price scrapers, this tool focuses on the qualitative and quantitative reasoning behind a stock's valuation, including revenue growth projections, fair value estimates, and intrinsic discounts.

### FEATURES

Valuation Model Extraction: Capture detailed financial assumptions including fairValue, intrinsicDiscount, and discountRate.

Narrative Analysis: Scrape the coreTitle and coreExcerpt to understand the specific thesis (e.g., "Full Stack AI Sovereign") behind a stock analysis.

Industry Benchmarking: Retrieve industryAverages for PE ratios and revenue growth to compare individual narratives against the broader market.

Historical Financial Context: Extract a company's revenueLtmHistory and netIncomeLtmHistory (up to 10 years back) as presented within the narrative.

Author & Social Insights: Track the owner credentials (e.g., "Community Contributor"), voteCount, and totalViews to gauge the narrative's authority and reach.

Multi-Source Flexibility: Target data based on a specific company ticker, a known user ID, or a specific geographic market (e.g., US, AU, GB).

### USE CASES

Sentiment & Thesis Research: Aggregate the most popular "Narratives" for a stock to identify common investment themes or risks identified by the community.

Comparative Valuation: Compare your own DCF (Discounted Cash Flow) assumptions against community estimates for revenuePercentageChange and profitMargin.

Content Aggregation: Power financial news feeds or investment dashboards with high-quality community-driven stock summaries.

Quantitative Backtesting: Correlate community "Fair Value" estimates over time with actual market price movements to identify top-performing analysts.

Competitor Intelligence: Monitor industry-wide trends by scraping narratives across an entire primaryIndustry (e.g., Media, Software).


### INPUT

Extract narratives from 3 sources:

- Stock Ticker

- User id

- country market
