The Research Desk Is Open
Ten institutional reports. The AQS framework applied to live deals. The first research desk for attention as an asset class.
Nobody has built an institutional research desk for attention as an asset class.
There is one now.
Last year, Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery put $110 billion on the table. Every sell-side desk in the country modeled the merger on content libraries, subscriber counts, and ad revenue projections. None of them priced the behavioral data underneath. Which franchises generate repeat viewing that compounds? Which catalogs are bleeding 30% of their audience per quarter, and nobody flags it? Whether the content verticals that look like growth engines actually fund themselves through sustained attention or are just licensing arbitrage that unwinds in three years.
The AQS framework priced all of it. That analysis is one of ten.
Ten institutional reports. Live deals. Durability scoring, cohesion analysis, conversion underwriting, and behavioral covenant structure. The methodology a credit desk runs before writing a check, applied to transactions capital is already watching.
