Dashboard News: A Filtered Stream Across Your Holdings

The Problem With Financial News Feeds

Bloomberg, Reuters, and every public news aggregator produce thousands of stories a day, the overwhelming majority of which don't affect anything you own. Reading even a filtered version takes an hour you don't have, and most stories repeat the same headline with different angles. What actually matters is a much smaller set: stories that are (1) about your specific holdings, (2) material (not noise), and (3) novel enough to shift your existing view. That's a fraction of a percent of the raw tape.

What the News Card Shows

The Dashboard News card aggregates stories across your portfolio and watchlist, deduplicating near-identical versions and ranking by a material-impact score computed from three signals: model-estimated sentiment delta vs the prior week's baseline for the named ticker, cross-source novelty (is this story appearing across multiple publications in a short window), and time-since-publication decay. Each row shows headline, ticker(s), publication, minutes-ago, sentiment direction, and a "mover" flag if the price has moved materially since publication.

Reading the Stream

Two uses of the feed pay off. First, morning scan — 3-5 minutes through the top 10 items usually captures everything you need to know about overnight developments affecting your book. Second, intraday alerts — news marked "mover" is actionable in real time; a story ranking high on novelty with price action not yet reflecting it is the rare case of a tradeable headline. Most stories without the mover flag are commentary; skip them.

Where It Fits

News pairs with Recent Alerts (your rule-triggered events), Movers (intraday price outliers), and per-ticker Sentiment News for the deeper single-name feed. Use dashboard news as a triage layer; go per-ticker for the full source set.
