What we publish
Every hour, the Macro Desk publishes a short bulletin titled What Moved Markets This Hour. Each bulletin contains three to five headlines covering market-moving events geopolitics, earnings, macro policy, and notable single-stock moves alongside the related ticker symbols and the original source articles. Every bulletin is permanently archived at goodmoat.com/markets/macro/archive. On weekdays, a longer Daily Wrap is published shortly after the US market close at /markets/macro.
Sources
Headlines are drawn from a rotating pool of leading financial newswires (including Reuters, Bloomberg, and the Tiingo news feed). Each headline links back to its original source so readers can verify and read further. We do not paraphrase press releases; we summarize what reporters have already published.
Synthesis
Bulletins are synthesized by a large language model (currently DeepSeek and Azure OpenAI, routed by GoodMoat’s AI provider layer) using a strict editorial prompt that requires factual specificity, forbids investment advice, and forbids vague filler language. The model is constrained to emit one sentence per headline, maximum 120 characters, and must classify sentiment (bearish, neutral, bullish) for each item.
Review and corrections
Bulletins are reviewed by the GoodMoat editorial team. When errors are identified, we update the published bulletin in place and bump its dateModified timestamp. Corrections are tracked in the Daily Wrap when material. Reach the desk at hello@goodmoat.com.
What this is not
The Macro Desk does not publish trading recommendations, price targets, or buy/sell ratings. Bulletins are summaries of news, not investment advice. For valuation analysis, see the GoodMoat fair-value tools.
