§01 MARKET_NEWS

OVERVIEW

A live stream of market headlines. Each one shows its source, the time in Eastern, and the tickers it affects. You can narrow the stream to the headlines most likely to move prices.

Tapeboard MARKET_NEWS

WHAT IT IS

A live news feed spanning multiple wire and financial-press sources. Each row shows the tickers in green, the headline, the source, and the time. Click a headline to read the article inside Tapeboard — you do not leave the page. Click a ticker to go to that stock.

Articles dedupe on canonical URL (tracking params stripped — utm_*, mc_cid, mc_eid, etc.). A spam filter drops generic "stocks moving today" listicles and low-quality syndicated fragments.

Per-ticker news uses the same feed scoped to a symbol — surfaced by the Research page's News tab and by the ticker search here.

Breaking-news push is a separate channel: every 5 minutes it scans the last 5 minutes of company news, filters to a curated HIGH-impact keyword set, and notifies every user watching the affected ticker. Quiet hours, per-user daily caps, and cross-channel dedup are all enforced before anything is sent. Halts still punch through quiet hours.

WHEN TO USE IT

Skip Twitter/X when a candle wicks weird. Open /news; if it moved on headlines, they're there top of list. If you're looking for a specific company's catalysts, use its /stock page instead — that view's filtered already.

The sector-performance strip on the right shows which S&P sectors are leading the tape today — click any sector to scope the feed to that sector's bellwether ticker. The mini-heatmap visualizes the same data across timeframes (Today / 1W / 1M / 3M / YTD).

OPEN IT

Path: /news, any signed-in user. Free view never expires. Shortcut: none — accessible from the sidebar Tier-gate: Free sees 10 headlines at a time (the feed says Showing 10 articles) without the right-rail panels (sector performance and mini-heatmap). Pro unlocks the right rail, unlimited feed depth, and real-time push. Free users refresh on a 5-minute poll.

HOW TO USE IT

  1. Click News in the left menu, under Research. Each row shows the tickers in green, the headline, the source, and the time.
  2. Click a headline to read the article inside Tapeboard. Click a ticker to see that stock.
  3. Click HIGH_IMPACT above the list to show only headlines marked as high impact — news likely to move a stock. Click it again to see everything. On a phone, tap HIGH IMPACT, BREAKING, or ALL in the row above the list. BREAKING shows the last two hours.
  4. Type a symbol into the SEARCH_TICKER box to keep only headlines that mention it. Click the X to clear.
  5. On a phone, tap Filters to choose a source group (major wire services, analysis, sector-specific, or regulatory sources), then a source.
  6. Click AUDIO above the list to have breaking headlines read aloud. See Radio and Scanner sounds.
  7. Click any sector card on the right rail to scope the feed to that sector's primary ticker (e.g. XLK for tech, XLF for financials).
