From 2 comments
Nice product! Great job! I think this can be pretty useful. What do you use to get the news/aggregates ? Any specific API? Is it open source? And is the sentiment only based on…

How are sources parsed and ranked?
From 1 comment
I'm a fan of HN-style information minimalism. How are you parsing the sources and ranking the display, out of interest? Are you using NewsAPI or grabbing RSS feeds directly or…

I find https://finviz.com/news.ashx to be mostly useful. "Real" news on the left, "opinion" on the right. Some of the blogs, like calculated risk, are actually very cut/dried…
