Sentiment Classification of News Articles
Financial Services Client
Challenge: Our client, a mid-size financial services firm, relied on their analysts to manually scan hundreds of news articles each morning before markets opened. Analysts would read through headlines, skim articles, and try to gauge whether coverage of key holdings was positive, negative, or neutral. This process was slow, inconsistent, and heavily influenced by individual bias. Two analysts reading the same article would often come away with different sentiment readings. The firm needed a way to process news at scale with consistent, quantifiable sentiment scores that could feed directly into their trading models and risk dashboards.
