Sources
The Wire summarises other people’s reporting and attaches the market data to it. That only means something if you can see where both halves come from — so here is everything we read, and everything we refuse to.
Newsrooms
Publications we read directly, by their own feeds. Every Wire story links back to the original article; we never reproduce it in full.
- Wire copy, markets and macro
- Markets desk
- Markets and breaking business news
- Top stories
- Business section
- Non-US perspective on the same events
- Business and economics
- High-volume, ticker-level coverage
- Cross-asset and earnings coverage
- Technology funding and M&A
- Digital assets
Primary documents
Filings and statements from the organisation itself, with no reporter in between. These are the strongest receipts on the site.
- 8-K, 10-Q, 10-K and S-1 filings for covered companies, read directly from the SEC
- Every 8-K filed market-wide, not just watchlist names. A company's own words before anyone reports them
- Press releases and policy statements, straight from the source
Market data
Numbers, as opposed to words. Every figure on AlgoThesis traces to one of these.
- Every price, chart and percentage move on this site. Licensed end-of-day US equity bars, licensed for display and redistribution. Prices are end-of-day, never real-time.
- Revenue, margins and share counts on stock pages come from filed financial statements, not a vendor's estimate of them.
Also read
Narrower inputs that round out coverage.
- An autonomous forecasting engine that publishes its own record
- RedditA small number of finance communities, read for what retail is discussing — never as a factual source
- News searchA rotating set of market themes queried across the news web, so coverage isn't limited to the fixed feeds above
What we exclude
News search returns whichever site happened to carry a story, which is not the same as choosing a source. We filter it.
No story is accepted from search if it arrives via a social network (Facebook, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube), an open publishing platform (Medium, Substack, blog hosts), or a portal that republishes other outlets’ copy under its own domain (MSN, AOL, aggregator front pages) — including the aggregator that ran the search.
A story reaches the Wire attributed to the newsroom that reported it, or it doesn’t reach the Wire.
One deliberate exception, listed above: we read a few Reddit finance communities on purpose, as a read on what retail is discussing. Those are never treated as reporting, and nothing enters the Wire as fact on their say-so.
How a story is handled
- Headlines arrive from the feeds above. Anything already covered is folded into the existing story rather than published twice — that is why a story can show many outlets under “also covered”.
- We write a short summary and a two-sided read: the case for, and the case against. Both are our words, not the publisher’s.
- Market data is attached from the licensed feeds above. Where we have no verified price history, the chart is hidden rather than estimated.
- The original article stays behind its own link. We summarise and cite; we don’t republish.
Corrections
If we have mis-attributed a story, misread a number, or you are a publisher who would rather we didn’t summarise your work, tell us and we will fix or remove it.
Prices are end-of-day and licensed for display; they are not real-time and are not suitable for trading decisions. Nothing on this page or elsewhere on AlgoThesis is investment advice — see the risk disclaimer.
