Frequently asked questions

Which stock market sector is most bullish right now?
The heatmap compares all 11 GICS sectors against the overall market's news and social tone and updates daily: sectors running hotter than the market lead the map, and sectors running cooler trail it.
How is sector sentiment measured?
Every scored mention of a covered stock counts as bullish or bearish; a sector's reading pools those counts across its stocks and compares the balance against the market as a whole. Financial news skews positive as a genre, so measuring against the market baseline is what makes sectors comparable.
