Stock News Sentiments RSS Feed API

How are sentiment scores computed for the Stock News Sentiments RSS Feed API?

The sentiment scores for the Stock News Sentiments RSS Feed API are computed based on the number of positive and negative/neutral comments received in a 24-hour period. For example, if there are 500 positive comments and 500 negative/neutral comments, the sentiment score would be calculated as (500 * 1) + (500 * 0) = 500. The average mentions per day value would then be 500 / 1000 = 0.5. Additionally, the Average Hype Index (AHI) and Relative Hype Index (RHI) are calculated to provide further insights into sentiment.

Where does Financial Modeling Prep source news from?

Financial Modeling Prep works with several data providers to source and provide financial and market news

What is the source of the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ratings and scores data?

We source our ESG data from company filings where we apply NLP to extract those keywords: -Social = 'Accident, (Adult AND entertainment), Alcohol, Anti-personnel, Behavior, Charity, (Child AND Labor), Community, Controversial, Controversy, Discrimination, Gambling, Health, Human capital, Human rights, Inclusion, Injury, Labor, Munitions, Opposition, Pay, Philanthropic, Quality, Responsible.' -Environment = 'Biodiversity, Carbon, Cleantech, Clean, Climate, Coal, Conservation, Ecosystem, Emission, Energy, Fuel, Green, Land, Natural, Pollution, (Raw AND materials), Renewable, Resources, Sustainability, Sustainable, Toxic, Waste, Water.' -Governance = 'Advocacy, Bribery, Compensation, Competitive, Corruption, (Data AND breach), Divestment, Fraud, (Global AND Compact), GRI, (Global AND Reporting AND Initiative), Independent, Justice, Stability, Stewardship, Transparency.' Those are the key concepts that we extract from the statements to create the score. We then, with NLP, create the sentiment score to finally create a ranking score. We have developed our methodology based on available frameworks. We also compare each company to the industry benchmark to be able to rank ESG companies compared to their peers. For the bounds of the rating, a score of 0 is the worst and 100 is the best, so a 50 would be average. You can read more here https://site.financialmodelingprep.com/developer/docs/esg-score-api/

How frequently does your company check news sources for new articles?

We check every news page every hour for any new articles. This ensures that we do not miss any news from the sources that we have.

What is the source of the Analyst Estimates data?

We have multiple estimates, such as Davit Kirakosyan, who has been working for us for a few months, and we aggregate the analyst reports from the news to aggregate them. We are using estimates from the news that we extract for the growth rate and have an algorithm for smaller cap stocks, that uses the CAGR formula with a rolling period of 5 years. We are also working on extracting the estimate from the press release and Wall Street analysts to have a consensus estimate, which will be available soon. We also have Wall Street Analyst estimates: https://financialmodelingprep.com/api/v4/earning-estimate?page=0&apikey=your_api_key
