What the stock market did today, in plain words — updated every morning and every hour while the market is open. No jargon, no advice: just what is up, what is down, and what is driving it.
Sharp, not bigger. What deserves attention right now — nothing more.
Market pulse as of 2026-11-11 20:04 CST
What this page is: a plain-English snapshot of the market, pulled together automatically. It is not financial advice, and its read can be wrong — check anything important before acting on it.
Five checks are the cross-check on the pulse — whether the market is trending, what the news sounds like, how many big companies are up, how nervous investors are, and how the market has done over the last five days. Each one scores from -1 to +1. The pulse itself is built from the 12 sector reads; these five are the independent check on it.
The market is leaning up today (pulse +0.24). Septerna is up 3.1% today, the biggest gainer; EquipmentShare.com is down 16.5% today, the biggest loser. The big story is "Saudi Arabia says debris from intercepted missiles falls in Mecca region - Reuters".
The stories behind the pulse — what moved, what matters, and what is happening in the market. Updated 2026-11-11 20:01 CST; tap a headline to read the full story.
Why they matter: a big one-day move usually means real news about that company, and the reason each one is flagged is shown on its card, so the list can be checked, not trusted blindly. These are the biggest movers from the last completed trading day — the list is built before the market opens, from the previous close. Prices below are that close, not live.
The movers list is partial today — one source did not answer.

What the market expects next — the analysts’ consensus rating and the next scheduled earnings date for the day’s movers. These are analyst expectations and scheduled earnings, not predictions or recommendations. No analyst price target is shown — a target is not a prediction, and the free sources do not provide one (Finnhub’s price-target endpoint is a paid feature; Yahoo’s needs a login). This dashboard adds no buy or sell advice of its own. Projections as of 2026-11-11 20:05 CST; they update each morning.
Every sector at a glance — tap one to see its movers and top stories. Each sector lists its own niche sources. Sector read as of 2026-11-11 20:01 CST; movers, news, and breadth refresh every hour during market hours.
How each sector score is built: the simple average of three checks, each scored from −1 to +1 — how many of the sector’s 10 tracked stocks rose, the sector fund’s 5-day move, and the tone of its news. The headline pulse at the top is the simple average of these 12 sector reads. The 12 are the market’s 11 standard sectors plus Aerospace & Defense, counted as its own read. Breadth counts only the tracked stocks named in each sector — a sample, not the whole market.
