How this mood is scored ▾
Each day the model reads that day's news for the sector and asks, as someone who owns assets or makes their living in it: how am I feeling this month, and why? The month's mood is that running answer, tied to the specific events driving it (the story shown above). It leans on trusted, higher-impact reporting, and on the prior month when a month is quiet, so one loud headline can't swing it. The read updates daily through the month; once a month ends, its mood is locked. This year is read live from the news the pipeline actually collected (hover a bar for its story count). · last computed Jul 11, 2026
