Check a market headline

Five checks. Traceable evidence. Clear uncertainty.

Your notes stay in this page and are cleared when you reload or leave. Copy your summary before closing. SynthSignal does not automatically check the claim or fetch the links you enter.

0 of 5 steps reviewed. Mark a step after examining it, even if the answer remains uncertain.

  1. 1. Open the original source

    Find the filing, official release or original reporting. Check the website and the exact asset or company.

  2. 2. Separate the dates and times

    Record when the event happened, when the article was published and when the quote was observed. Include time zones.

  3. 3. Check the numbers and their basis

    Check currency, units, comparison period and denominator. Distinguish a forecast from a reported result.

  4. 4. Read the surrounding context

    Read beyond the headline. Look for conditions, revisions, risk disclosures and any paid promotion.

  5. 5. Check what the other sources add

    Trace repeated reports back to their source. Record any independent evidence, contradiction or unresolved question.

Why trace the source?

Convincing websites and social posts can carry misleading investment claims. Investor.gov describes how online promotions can appear credible; the CFTC warns against treating crypto tips and sudden price spikes as reliable evidence. This worksheet helps organize your own research. It does not authenticate documents or replace reading the original material.
