Market Pulse

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 2026-11-12 07:25 CST

Market pulse — today’s read
The market is flat today
Technical read: Choppy / no trend, mixed
The market isn't clearly going up or down today — the signs pointing up and the signs pointing down are roughly balanced, so it's drifting sideways.

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.

−1 · down0 · flat+1 · up
How the number is built: The pulse is one number that sums up the tracked market — the 12 sector reads below, from -1 (everything pointing down) to +1 (everything pointing up). 0 means no direction at all. +0.19 is close to 0 — only a slight lean up.
Pulse score: +0.19
Built from the 12 sector reads as of 2026-11-12 07:38 CST
The five signals read: +0.21 — the five-signal check lands in the same place as the sector read (+0.21 vs +0.19) — both reads put it at a slight lean up.

This read is graded every day against what the S&P 500 actually did. The record appears here once three days are graded.

The five signals

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 cross-check it from market-wide data and from headline sentiment — the news read is scored from stories about the two big index funds (SPY and QQQ) and Apple. The trend check’s direction comes from moving averages — SPY’s 10-day average against its 30-day average.

RegimeADX 15.9 · Choppy / no trend · score +0.00
Trend strength weak (ADX 15.9); the moving averages point down
How it scores: ADX measures how strong the trend is, from how prices have been moving. ADX 25 or higher is a real trend and scores the trend's direction (+1 up, -1 down); ADX 20 to 25 is a weak trend (half that); under 20 there is no trend and it scores 0. Choppy means prices moving sideways without a clear direction. Direction comes from SPY's 10- and 30-day moving averages.

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.

How the trend lines are figured: the past-month and past-3-months moves compare the last close with the close on the same calendar date 1 and 3 months earlier — the last trading day on or before it — using adjusted daily closes — adjusted for stock splits and dividends, so the comparison is like-for-like. ‘Usually moves about ±X% a day’ is the average size of the stock’s daily moves over its last 63 trading days.

Sectors

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 2026-11-12 07:36 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 (breadth scores (percent up − 50) / 50, so half the stocks up scores 0 and all of them up scores +1), the sector fund’s 5-day move, and the tone of its news. When the news check has too few leaning stories to call, it counts as 0 in that average. 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.

Elon Musk now says Tesla will keep building the Cybertruck “through the end of summer 2027” to “work through more of the Cybertruck order backlog.” That buys the electric pickup roughly two to three more months, five days after Tesla first announced it was killing it. The reprieve lands as a growing number of Tesla’s own fans push back on the decision, and on what it says about Tesla’s future as a company that sells cars to people.

Tesla’s “flying” Roadster just took a hit from Porsche. Speaking at a conference in Berlin today, CEO Michael Leiters said Porsche wants “to completely steer clear from any kind of effects and shows,” according to Bloomberg.

Plain words

The marked terms on this page, in plain words. Tap a marked term anywhere above and it jumps here.

graded
The next day, the call is compared with what the S&P 500 (SPY) actually did and marked right or wrong. The misses stay on the record — nothing is quietly removed. The record appears on the page once three days are graded.
cross-check
A second set of measurements, built from market-wide data, used to sanity-check the main read. When the two disagree, the page says so instead of hiding it.
moving averages
The average of a stock's closing prices over a set number of past days. Comparing a shorter average with a longer one shows which way prices have been drifting.
▲ bullish
This story's wording scored positive for the company. The score reads the tone of the words — it is not a guess about where the stock goes next.
at the last close
The final price of the most recent completed trading day. Until the next session finishes, that close is the newest complete price there is.
▼ bearish
This story's wording scored negative for the company. The score reads the tone of the words — it is not a guess about where the stock goes next.
before the market opens
The list is put together in the morning from the last completed trading day's final prices — the newest complete prices there are until today's session finishes.
leaning articles
Stories whose wording leans positive or negative for this company. Stories that lean neither way are not counted.
EPS
Earnings per share — the profit analysts expect for each share of the company. A negative estimate means they expect the company to lose money.
Breadth
How many of the sector's tracked stocks rose today. All of them up is the strongest score; half up is flat.
Momentum
How much the sector's fund price has moved over the last 5 trading days — its recent direction, up or down.
● neutral
This story's wording scored neither positive nor negative for the company. The score reads the tone of the words — it is not a guess about where the stock goes next.
qualifying coverage
Coverage that passed the page's checks — the story is about the company it is tagged with, current, and not a duplicate.

Every story must pass the page's checks before it prints: it has to be about the company it is tagged with, current, and not a duplicate or an advertisement in disguise.
