How the reading works
One score per story. Each market story is scored from −100 to +100 by the Glideslope engine, which reads headline and summary cues such as guidance raised, rate cuts, layoffs or a selloff. Stories that are not about markets (sport, shopping, lifestyle) get no score and stay out of the chart.
One reading per bucket. Each hour or day is a confidence-weighted, trimmed average of its stories, so one loud headline cannot swing it. Above +15 reads bullish, below −15 bearish; the shaded band is neutral.
Read it with care. Sentiment describes the news flow, not the market's next move. The S&P 500 panel shows SPY's daily close for context. Nothing here is investment advice.
