How it works

How to read this page

News score

The score measures positive and negative company news after relevance, publisher quality, subject importance and freshness weighting. 50 is neutral.

Company breadth

Breadth shows how many companies share the same direction. A few extreme scores cannot make breadth look strong.

Confidence

Confidence uses the amount of news, direct company matches, publisher variety, freshness and agreement. It is separate from direction.

Price check

Completed weekly prices show whether prices moved with or against the news. Price never changes the news score.

Coverage rules

Company readings that do not pass the checks are excluded. A subgroup needs at least five companies before it is ranked.

Meaning

This page describes current published news. It is not a forecast, price target or recommendation.
