  • Silver -0.74%
  • Bitcoin +0.73%
  • Gold -0.43%

Change over the 1h 56m after this story was first indexed by PageNews. Markets move for many reasons at once and this records only what happened alongside — it is not a claim that this story caused any of it.

Measured by PageNews from the headline and the publisher’s own summary, not from the full articles. Scores describe word choice and emphasis; the percentage beside each is confidence, which is separate from the score and lower when there was less text to read. How this is measured.
