This page carries the headlines about the market itself rather than about a company: index moves, futures, the session's tone, yields and the broad risk picture. It is the context that decides whether a good setup in a single stock has the wind behind it or against it.
Two pages answer the same question with data instead of headlines. The BH Indicator combines momentum, breadth, moving averages and volatility into a single regime reading, and the momentum scanner shows in real time which stocks are actually leading while the index does whatever it is doing.
Each row shows the source and how long ago it was published, and the summary opens in place. Company-specific headlines sit under their own headings.
