AI Watchlist News Digest — How Pulsar Console Filters News for You

A typical financial news feed delivers hundreds of articles per day in reverse chronological order. Most are irrelevant to your specific positions. Scanning for the 5-10 articles that actually matter to your portfolio takes time and attention that could be spent on analysis.

Traditional ticker-based filtering helps but is crude — it surfaces every article that mentions a ticker, regardless of whether the ticker is the focus of the article or just a passing reference.

Pulsar Console's news system goes beyond simple keyword matching. Each article is processed by AI to extract the primary ticker mentions — distinguishing between articles that are about a company versus articles that merely reference it.

Sentiment scoring then ranks each article on a scale from bearish to bullish, with an impact rating that estimates how likely the news is to affect the stock price. This lets you prioritize: check the high-impact, negative-sentiment articles first when managing risk.

Set up a news widget filtered to your watchlist tickers. Configure the columns to show: headline, AI summary, sentiment, impact, and time. Sort by impact to see the most significant articles first.

Keep a second unfiltered news widget on another workspace tab for broad market awareness. This two-feed approach gives you both targeted intelligence and peripheral vision.

The combination of AI summarization and watchlist filtering means you can process a full day's worth of relevant news in under five minutes.
