Gale Finance MCP Server

MCP Auth Read only Docs license: CC BY 4.0

Risk and return metrics for stocks, ETFs, crypto and commodities, from Gale Finance, for AI assistants.

Ask your assistant things like "What's the Sortino ratio of gold?" or "How has gold performed against bitcoin over the long run?" With this server connected, it answers with the figures Gale publishes and links the Gale page each number comes from.

https://www.gale.finance/mcp

The server is free and read-only, and needs no account or API key. It returns computed metrics, such as Sharpe and Sortino ratios, volatility, drawdowns, tail risk, correlation and calendar-year returns. It does not return price quotes or price history.

This repository holds the documentation and the Claude Code plugin. The server runs on gale.finance; its source is not published here.

Data and methodology

  • Coverage: about 200 assets across stocks, ETFs, crypto and commodities, with several hundred published pair comparisons and long-term scorecards.

  • Freshness: the server serves the same figures as the published site and updates with each site release. Each answer states its data-through date.

  • Method: crypto is annualized over 365 days and stocks and ETFs over 252. Risk-free rates come from US Treasury bill yields (FRED). Single-asset metrics use each asset's full window. See the methodology and the glossary.

  • Not included: prices, price history, and "what if you had invested" calculations.

Gale Finance publishes educational data, not investment advice.

Privacy

The server logs one line per request: the tool, the Gale page it resolved to, the length of any search text (never the text itself), the result count, the timing and the User-Agent. It does not log your conversation, and it needs no account. See the privacy policy and the terms.

Support

Email hello@gale.finance or open an issue. Include the client you use and the question you asked.
