Frequently Asked Questions

Which is more reliable: CNBC Technology or CoinDesk?▼
CNBC Technology (43.0%) and CoinDesk (37.3%) get the same verdict against chance, measured from the first tradable price. A raw hit rate mostly reflects which markets a source covers, so a gap between the two rates alone says little.
How are these comparisons calculated?▼
AI rates each headline’s tone as up, down or sideways for its market. From the first price a reader could trade we check the move after 1, 3 and 7 days, and compare each source’s hit rate with chance for its own mix of calls (method on /how-reliable-is). Sources are compared on that verdict, their tone mix and the markets they cover.
What markets do CNBC Technology and CoinDesk both cover?▼
They share 11 market contexts: Australian stocks, BNB, Bitcoin, European stocks, Japanese stocks, NASDAQ, UK markets, USA, cryptocurrencies (Crypto), global markets, technology stocks (Tech). Each source may also cover additional markets independently.

Our Methodology

AI classifies each article's tone as up, down or sideways for the market it covers. From the first price a reader could trade after publication we check the move after 1, 3 and 7 days. A source's hit rate is compared with chance for the same calls and outcomes within each market, so covering calm or busy markets earns nothing. Each difference comes with a 95 % interval; checks close in time are resampled together in blocks of 7 or 14 days, because they share market moves. A verdict needs at least 300 checks and must hold after correcting for the number of sources tested (Holm). This answers "did the market move that way?": a hit rate, not a return. AIamond makes no forecasts of its own.
