Methodology for BDC and CEF coverage

Available means a symbol has validated database-backed coverage powering the app right now, whether that data came from a primary provider or a reviewed public-source backfill. Sample means a public identity page exists while one or more market fields are still incomplete. Tracked means the symbol is part of the monitored universe but should not be read as complete research coverage.

This distinction is deliberate. Histometrics does not collapse “tracked” and “ready to use” into the same label when the underlying data is different.

Ticker pages and coverage rows expose visible as-of dates where the date helps interpret a market field or source link. Internal repair queues are not presented as public research data.

Histometrics relies on configured data providers, database availability, and scheduled ingestion readiness. A ticker being present in the registry does not guarantee every dataset is live at the same time.

Advisor judgment still sits above the software. The product prepares research context and deliverable structure, but it does not eliminate the need for review before any recommendation is shared with a client.
