What is "mosaic theory"

The Mosaic theory in finance is a method used in security analysis to analyze information about a corporation.

Mosaic theory may refer to:

• Mosaic theory of intelligence gathering
• Mosaic theory (investments)
• Mosaic theory (litigation)

Mosaic theory is an approach for deciding cases which invoke the Fourth amendment of the United States Constitution. In United States v. Jones, the United States Supreme Court upheld a new framework for judging whether or not an individual has been subjected to an unlawful search, which was originally formulated by the DC Circuit Court. According to the ruling, the governments actions should be considered collectively rather than independently. George Washington University professor Orin Kerr has criticized the decision, arguing that it subjects lower courts to an unfeasible amount of work.
