TORONTO, June 24, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Artificial Intelligence company, AnalytixInsight Inc. (“AnalytixInsight”, or the “Company”) (TSX-V: ALY; OTCQB: ATIXF), comments on CFRA, one of the world’s largest providers of independent investment research, who today announced the release of a new data product focused on Canadian-listed Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) that provides CFRA clients with the same level of detail the firm has long made available covering the U.S. ETF landscape.
“CFRA’s ETF data is used on our platform to screen ETFs, generate machine-created narratives, and as a data feed for our robo-advisor,” explains Prakash Hariharan, President & CEO of AnalytixInsight. “Our technical teams have worked together for several months to improve data quality on North American ETFs and to develop future product offerings. We are pleased to support CFRA’s launch of its Canadian ETF data set.”AnalytixInsight’s financial analytics platform, CapitalCube, is capable of over 100 billion daily computations and utilizes CFRA’s ETF data in the development of its robo-advisor, which is being prepared for commercial deployment.CFRA reports that for the first time, their users will be able to get in-depth looks at Canadian ETF constituent holdings, granular classifications and key reference fields, which include issuer, expense ratio, strategy, and underlying index, as well as historical returns for each fund since inception. In the investment research space, wealth managers, financial advisors, and investment management firms will be able to scan the universe of Canadian ETFs to find specific asset classes, strategies, and types of exposures while simultaneously comparing specific ETFs based on cost, investment objectives, and holdings. It will also be possible to analyze the underlying constituents across ETFs to better understand sector, factor, and other risk exposures. This new data offering can be easily integrated into existing ETF screeners, portfolio analytics tools and other applications, allowing CFRA clients to build and share more robust offerings with their own clients.“The Canadian ETF marketplace is one of the largest in the world, with well over $150 billion in assets and more than 30 fund sponsors that have products listed on Canadian exchanges,” said Aniket Ullal, Head of ETF Data & Analytics for CFRA. “Until now, there has not been a data solution that captures the nuances of the different ETF share classes specific to the Canadian marketplace. We’ve sought to fill that void, while also leveraging our proprietary fund data framework created specifically for ETFs, so these fast-growing new funds aren’t forced into out-of-date categories and classifications.”  “We’re very excited to add this Canada-focused ETF data offering to our U.S. capabilities, and look forward to announcing similar data and analytics offerings focused on the world’s other major ETF marketplaces,” added Ullal, who prior to joining CFRA was the founder of First Bridge Data, LLC, which was acquired by CFRA in 2019.ABOUT CFRACFRA is one of the world’s largest providers of independent investment research, analytics and data.

PIESTANY, Slovakia, April 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Godfather of electronic music and innovator Jean-Michel Jarre becomes world’s first passenger to take off in KleinVision’s flying AirCar in preparation for Starmus Opening Concert also Featuring Sir Brian May of Queen.

KleinVision’s AirCar took to the skies with electronic music pioneer, Jean-Michel Jarre as its first passenger this month, signaling a new era of transportation innovation. AirCar, which received the Certificate of Airworthiness in January 2022, has already logged an impressive 130 flight hours and over 520 takeoffs.
“It is like being in a Jules Verne book, but for real! One second you speak to the driver, and next, you are up there in the air – an amazing experience!” said Jean-Michel Jarre after completing two flights in the AirCar at Piestany international airport.
The artist’s excitement was palpable as he marveled at the futuristic experience, perfectly reflecting the theme of his upcoming Starmus opening concert, ‘The Bridge from the Future’, powered by ESET, global digital security leader.
“AirCar addition to Starmus is a fantastic complement to our festival experience,” said Garik Israelian, PhD, astrophysicist at the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands and co-founder of Starmus, alongside Sir Brian May. “It mirrors the exhilarating journey we embark on, starting with Jean-Michel and Brian’s monumental concert that propels us to new heights, soaring alongside artists and inspiring thinkers like Jane Goodall, and coming back to Earth with the wisdom of astronaut Chris Hadfield once the festival concludes.”
“AirCar will not only be part of the Starmus opening concert, it will also be showcased at Starmus Camp, which, together with the Stephen Hawking Medal Ceremony and nine Nobelists giving lectures, will turn Bratislava into the world capital of science.”
Film director Todd Douglas Miller, Emmy Award-winning filmmaker of Apollo 11, captured the historic moment as he filmed the AirCar soaring at 2500 feet. “It looks impossible. It looks like it’s doing something it should not be doing!” Miller remarked, highlighting the groundbreaking nature of AirCar.
Professor Stefan Klein, inventor and pilot, expressed his pride as Jean-Michel became the inaugural passenger on the groundbreaking aircraft. “From dreams to reality, we have taken flight together with Jean-Michel, opening a new era of transportation with a touch of magic,” said Klein, moments before completing another successful intercity flight from Piestany to Nitra.
Anton Zajac, co-founder of KleinVision and ESET, lauded the advancement the AirCar represents in blurring the lines between roads and skies. “We are bridging the gap between the road and the sky, giving cars the freedom they symbolized 50 years ago,” Zajac remarked.
The flights took place in Piestany, Slovakia, and marked a momentous step towards a future where terrestrial and aerial travel seamlessly converge.
