Iran denies Trump's "productive talks" claim
Tehran rejected Washington's claims, unwinding Monday's relief rally. Futures pointing 0.6% lower. Scores 9/10 because conflicting narratives between two nuclear-capable states creates maximum uncertainty: markets cannot price the outcome until one side's account is verified.
8
BoE holds at 3.75% but puts rate hikes firmly on the table
Markets now pricing three to four hikes in 2026, a full reversal from pre-war cut expectations. Scores 8/10 because every UK domestic asset is repriced by this shift: gilts, mortgages, and sterling all affected.

What's inside every brief

Five sections. Everything that moved overnight.

Each section is designed to give you a specific type of intelligence. Together they give you a complete picture before markets open. Read in under five minutes.

News digest

The overnight stories that actually move markets, scored by impact from 1 to 10. Each story includes a plain-English summary and a specific explanation of why it scores the impact number it does. No noise, no filler.

Asset signals

Buy, sell, hold, and watch recommendations across equities, bonds, commodities, FX, and crypto. Each signal comes with a conviction score and a clear rationale grounded in the data from that morning.

Macro snapshot

A concise view of the key economic indicators that provide context for everything else: interest rates, inflation, yield curve, currency rates, and the Fear and Greed Index, each with direction of travel.

Market regime

A single label telling you what kind of environment we are in right now: risk-on, risk-off, rate shock, stagflation, or recovery. Every signal in the brief is interpreted through this lens so context is never missing.

Personalised delivery

Your brief is filtered to the themes you care about and written at the depth that matches your experience, whether you are just starting out or have been investing for years. Delivered at 6:30am in your local timezone.

Who it's for

Built for people who take their finances seriously.

You do not need to be a professional. You just need to care about where your money goes and want to make better decisions with it.

New investors

Just starting out

You have started investing or are about to. You want to understand what is happening in markets without wading through hours of financial news. The brief gives you a clear, plain-English read on what matters each morning so you can invest with confidence rather than guesswork.

Active investors

Already in the market

You hold a portfolio and check it regularly. You want to know what macro events and market moves mean for your positions before markets open. The brief surfaces the signals most relevant to what you hold, with clear buy, sell, hold, and watch recommendations backed by reasoning.

Wealth builders

Building long-term

You invest monthly into ISAs or index funds and want to stay connected to the macro picture without watching markets all day. The brief keeps you informed so you understand why your portfolio moves and when to pay closer attention.

Professionals

Finance backgrounds

You work in financial services, corporate development, or consulting. You already understand markets but do not have time each morning to read everything. The brief consolidates overnight developments into a single structured read you can act on or reference throughout the day.

Global investors

Across UK and US markets

You hold or are considering assets on both sides of the Atlantic. The brief covers UK and US markets as standard, with FX context built in so you always understand how currency moves affect the real value of your cross-border holdings.

Curious minds

Interested in how the world works

You want to understand the economic forces shaping the news: interest rates, oil prices, currency moves, central bank decisions. The brief explains what each one means and why it matters, without assuming prior financial knowledge.

What we track

Every indicator. Explained plainly.

Every number in your brief is there for a reason. Here is what each one tells you and why it belongs in your morning read.

Fed Funds Rate
The interest rate the US Federal Reserve sets for overnight lending. The single most influential number in global finance. When it rises, borrowing costs increase everywhere, growth slows, and bonds fall. Every signal in the brief is filtered through this number.
Macro
US 10Y Treasury Yield
The return investors demand to lend to the US government for 10 years. The global benchmark for mortgages, corporate loans, and equity valuations. Rising yields pressure growth stocks and bonds. The most-watched number on Wall Street each morning.
Rates
Yield Curve Spread
The difference between 10-year and 2-year US Treasury yields. When positive the economy looks healthy. When negative (inverted) it has historically preceded every US recession of the last 50 years. Currently inverted.
Recession signal
US CPI
The Consumer Price Index measures how much prices are rising. Above-target inflation forces central banks to keep rates high, pressuring bonds and growth stocks. It directly shapes what the Fed will do next and therefore what markets do next.
Inflation
BoE Base Rate
The Bank of England's benchmark rate, currently at 3.75%. It sets the cost of borrowing across the UK economy and influences sterling's strength. As a UK investor, this rate shapes the return on every domestic asset you hold.
UK Rates
GBP/USD
Critical for UK investors holding US assets. When the pound weakens, your US holdings are worth more in sterling when you sell. When it strengthens, it reduces your returns. Every US-listed signal needs to be read through this lens.
FX
Brent Crude Oil
The international oil benchmark. It feeds directly into inflation across every economy and drives energy sector earnings. Higher oil means higher transport and energy costs globally. Currently at the centre of the geopolitical risk picture.
Commodities
Fear and Greed Index
CNN's composite sentiment indicator, scored 0 to 100. Below 25 is extreme fear, historically a buying opportunity. Above 75 is extreme greed, historically a warning sign. Currently at 31: Fear.
Sentiment
Impact score
Every news story is scored 1 to 10 for its likely effect on markets. A score of 9 or 10 means market-moving. A score of 3 or 4 is background context. The scoring lets you triage your reading instantly and focus on what actually matters.
