How to Read Market News Effectively

Not all headlines are equal. Here is how to filter signal from noise.

Check the Source

Reputable sources like Reuters, Bloomberg, and SEC filings are more reliable than unverified social media posts.

Look for Specifics

News with concrete numbers (earnings, contracts, guidance) matters more than vague commentary.

Consider Timing

Pre-market news affects the open. After-hours news impacts the next session. Old news is often already priced in.

Watch for Bias

Some outlets have bullish or bearish tendencies. Cross-reference multiple sources for balanced perspective.

Understanding News Sentiment

Our sentiment labels provide a quick indicator of whether an article tone is positive, negative, or neutral. However, always read the full article - headlines can be misleading and context matters.

Market News FAQ

We update news throughout the day from various financial news sources. Breaking news appears quickly, but always verify with primary sources for time-sensitive decisions.

Sentiment analysis uses natural language processing to estimate if an article is generally positive, negative, or neutral about the mentioned stocks.

News is one input for research, not a complete trading system. By the time you read it, professional traders have often already reacted.

Use the ticker filter to see news mentioning a specific stock, or click through to any stock detail page for related headlines.
