Maldonado Equity Research exists because institutional-grade analysis shouldn't be locked behind Wall Street paywalls. Every report is systematic, backtested, and built on a framework validated across 350 reports and three distinct market regimes.
Mercedes Maldonado is the founder of Maldonado Equity Research, an AI-powered independent equity research platform delivering institutional-style analysis to self-directed retail investors across all U.S. equities.
MER was built on a single premise: the systematic rigor available to institutional analysts — multi-factor scoring, structured risk frameworks, and disciplined valuation modeling — should not require a Bloomberg terminal to access.
Mercedes brings a multidisciplinary analytical lens to equity research, combining technical analysis (Smart Money Concepts, Volume Profile, VWAP), fundamental scoring, and options flow analysis into one cohesive framework.
The MER v4.7 PRO Framework is the product of extensive research and validation — a five-module scoring engine refined from v4.3 through v4.7, improving directional accuracy from 74.3% to 79.4% (+5.1 percentage points) across 350 backtested reports.
The framework has been validated using OLS regression analysis (R²=0.363, F=24.25, p<0.001) and tested across three distinct market regimes: the 2022 Bear Market, 2024 Bull Market, and 2025 Recovery period.
MER features 10+ deployed research tools, an institutional PDF report pipeline, and a growing subscriber base of independent investors.
Every report is generated through the same five-module scoring pipeline. No ad-hoc opinions — only structured inputs producing structured outputs, with documented methodology and backtested accuracy.
MER reports follow institutional sell-side structure: company overview, financial analysis, five-method valuation, risk matrix, options analysis, and a 12-month price target with bull/base/bear scenarios.
Every report discloses its scoring framework, methodology version, and backtested accuracy rate. The MER framework carries U.S. copyright registration and is subject to ongoing academic methodology review.
