What it is

An earnings calendar tells you when a company reports. Nothing tells you when a government is about to decide the company's fate — an FDA drug approval, a Medicare coverage ruling, a foreign mine licence — or when a debt wall comes due or an IPO lock-up frees up supply. The Catalyst Calendar is that feed: every dated, non-earnings catalyst across the market, merged into one uniform record, each scored for confidence and dated so precisely you can replay exactly what was known on any past day.

A dated binary the market is over- or under-pricing is a mispricing you can see coming. Fear builds into a known date; options richen; the outcome is a coin-flip the desk can handicap. We provide the WHEN. The desk decides the WHAT.

Every row is the same shape — ticker, event type, date, days-until, confidence, status, plain-English headline, and the source it came from — so a screen can reason across a drug approval and a debt wall in a single pass.

The nine catalyst types

Cross-sector by design — biotech is just where the flagship lives. Counts are live.

1,165

Debt maturities

Corporate bond walls coming due — refinancing pressure, dated to the day.

479

IPO lock-up expiries

When insider shares free up — a supply overhang with a known date.

370

FDA drug decisions

PDUFA goal dates & advisory-committee meetings — the classic binary.

297

Clinical readouts

Forward trial data — the biggest, least-priced biotech make-or-break events.

246

Medicare coverage

The payer gate: will Medicare pay? Denials & restrictions flagged early.

116

Medical device decisions

FDA PMA approvals & advisory panels for device makers.

66

Foreign approvals

Non-US regulators US desks don't calendar — European drug opinions, Canadian mine & nuclear licences.

9

Medicare Star Ratings

Annual insurer scores — a bonus-payment cliff for managed care.

Who uses it

01 Systematic & quant desks

Screen the entire optionable universe for dated binaries in one pass; size and time the book around days-until. A fast model can crank the whole list nightly.

02 Options & volatility

Implied vol richens into a known event date. The calendar surfaces that date months ahead — the raw material for a volatility-risk-premium trade.

03 Fundamental analysts

Never get blindsided by a coverage denial or a foreign approval buried in a filing footnote. Every catalyst a name faces, in one view.

04 Risk & portfolio

Ask "what's coming for our book in the next N days?" and get every dated decision across every name — with a confidence on each date.

How it holds up

Point-in-time

Backtestable by design

Every row carries its source date. Replay the calendar as it stood on any past day — so a signal can be tested, not just asserted.

Confidence-scored

Honest about certainty

A stated FDA date scores near-certain; a vague "data in 2027" scores low and carries a range. You always know how firm the date is.

Always current

Refreshed nightly

New filings, press releases and regulator feeds flow in every night; the whole calendar serves through one thin query.
