I am a relatively passive investor, owning around 5-7 stocks at any given time and tracking around 20-25. I'm also lazy and can’t often check yahoo news to see if there are any significant developments with the companies I’m interested in. I’m also a Python/full-stack dev (12+ years), so I tried to build something that gives me quick insights.
I know at this point, everyone might be sick of yet another low-effort AI bullsh\*t, and you’re probably right. I agree that AI (in this case, LLMs) is not a silver bullet and you can’t rely on it for everything.
But for “digest a pile of text and surface the *material stuff* fast”, they can be very useful.
So I built a free page that generates a short “brief” for different collections of stocks (Mag 7, Hot AI Stocks, Big Banks, Oil, Robotics, etc.). The goal is **noise reduction** — highlight what changed that might matter.
**How it looks:**
* **Top section:** the most important developments across the whole collection (blue area)
* **Per-stock insights:** click a stock on desktop, or “Latest Insights” on mobile
**How it works:**
* Covers the **last 24 hours**
* Updates **every hour** when the market is open, and **every 4 hours** when it’s closed
You can try it here: [https://www.valuehunter.net/brief](http://valuehunter.net/brief?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=brief)
**What I would appreciate:**
Suggestions for the collections. If you want something added/removed, or a new collection (e.g. “Healthcare”), tell me what tickers you’d put in and why. The idea is to get a quick “market overview from different angles”.
Other suggestions are welcome too.
**Optional customization:**
If you want your own mini-collection, you can log in and create a watchlist (for free). It’ll generate a brief based on the time between your last login and now (it won’t regenerate more than once per 24h).
**Disclaimers:**
* Sometimes there isn’t enough news in the last 24h for a stock, so you won’t see useful insights.
* News comes from the FMP API. I'm not sure if they're extremely timely, but it works for me since I don't need up-to-the-minute breaking news, but rather some catch up. (open to suggestions for other APIs because I haven't found other quality ones that don't break the bank)
* This uses an LLM, so don’t treat it as gospel — I show **how many articles** were analyzed per collection/stock, and I **link the relevant articles** next to each insight so you can sanity-check everything.
I hope this will be helpful to the community. Let me know if something doesn't work as expected or if you have any questions.
