New features

• Tags: Added support to add any entity that appears in Data Explorer to a tag. A tag can only consist of a single entity type. This is part of a broader effort to support both company & non-company entities equally well in the Exabel platform.
• What's new: Displaying in-app updates from What's New since a user's last login, so as to better inform users of new features and changes.
• Portfolio strategies: Added a new chart for "Returns by days after rebalancing". This should help convey information about alpha decay on the input signals and inform the decision on rebalancing frequency, and is now available on all strategy backtests run from June 2022.
• Alpha tests: Added two new charts for "Return by days after rebalancing" and "Return by weekday". This is now available on all alpha tests run from June 2022.

Miscellaneous improvements

• Tags: Added an explicit action button for removing entities when viewing a tag - this was previously unintuitive.
• Portfolio strategies: Added a tooltip to explain the Transfer Coefficient metric.
• Drill-downs: Added a placeholder name for unnamed widgets in the sidebar navigation and fixed overflowing table content.

Bug fixes

• Signal exports: Removed security identifiers like bloomberg_ticker when exporting signals for non-company entities, which was causing the entity name to not be exported correctly.
• Alpha tests: Corrected some timestamps that were displayed in UTC instead of the user's time zone.
• Library: Removed tooltip content from browser's find-in-page search.
