What it does
Calculate an ETF's premium or discount to NAV from Yahoo Finance data (yfinance), compare or screen ETFs by premium, explain why a gap exists, and decompose a sudden ETF move into NAV-driven vs structural components (dealer gamma exposure, blocked AP arbitrage, sentiment). Use this skill whenever the user asks whether an ETF trades above or below NAV, compares ETF premiums or discounts, screens for the biggest ones, asks about ETF arbitrage or premium convergence, or wants to know why an ETF jumped or diverged from its holdings, including gamma squeezes, dealer gamma exposure (GEX), and blocked creation/redemption. Especially relevant for leveraged, inverse, international, bond, commodity, and crypto ETFs (IBIT, BITO, HYG, KWEB).
ETF Premium/Discount Analysis Skill
If your host has not already executed the shell probes below (for example, in Codex), run the commands inside the ! wrappers with its shell tool before choosing a setup path. Use the actual output; if shell access is unavailable, report that limitation.
Calculates the premium or discount of an ETF's market price relative to its Net Asset Value (NAV) using data from Yahoo Finance via yfinance.
Why this matters: An ETF's market price can diverge from the value of its underlying holdings (NAV). When you buy at a premium, you're overpaying relative to the assets; at a discount, you're getting a bargain. This divergence is typically small for liquid US equity ETFs but can be significant for bond ETFs, international ETFs, leveraged/inverse products, and crypto ETFs, especially during periods of market stress.

Step 1: Ensure Dependencies Are Available
Current environment status:
!`python3 -c "exec('try:\n import yfinance, pandas, numpy\n print(f\'yfinance={yfinance.__version__} pandas={pandas.__version__} numpy={numpy.__version__}\')\nexcept Exception:\n print(\'DEPS_MISSING\')')"`
If DEPS_MISSING, install required packages:
import subprocess, sys
subprocess.check_call([sys.executable, "-m", "pip", "install", "-q", "yfinance", "pandas", "numpy"])
If already installed, skip and proceed.
Step 2: Route to the Correct Sub-Skill
Classify the user's request and jump to the matching section. If the user asks a general question about an ETF's premium or discount without specifying a particular analysis type, default to Sub-Skill A (Single ETF Snapshot).
