2026 Release: Market Intelligence

We've spent the last few months rebuilding core parts of the platform around a simple idea: IR teams need market context alongside their communications data. Share price movements don't happen in isolation—they're shaped by commodity prices, sector trends, and the timing of announcements.

Today we're launching commodities tracking, benchmark indices, correlation analysis, cumulative abnormal return analysis, and improved tools for identifying what matters most. We've also rebuilt the announcements experience, added broadcast analytics, improved compliance alerting, and refreshed the interface throughout.


Market Intelligence

Commodities tracking. 35 commodities across nine categories—precious metals, base metals, battery metals, bulk, industrial, nuclear, energy, fertilisers, and rare earths—with live prices updated hourly. Select up to three featured commodities that appear alongside your share price everywhere in the platform.

Benchmark indices. 31 ASX indices across main market, GICS sector, specialty, and other categories. Choose an index instead of a commodity if sector performance matters more than commodity exposure.

Correlation analysis. A dedicated correlation page with heatmap, rolling correlation, cross-correlation, and R-squared analysis. Understand how your share price relates to commodities, indices, and sector benchmarks over configurable time periods.

Cumulative abnormal return (CAR) analysis. CAPM-based abnormal return calculations across multiple event windows—AR(0) for announcement day impact, CAR(-3,-1) for pre-announcement leak detection, CAR(-5,-1) for early warning, CAR(-1,+1) for 3-day event response, and CAR(0,+10) for sustained impact.

Enhanced sentiment analysis. Sentiment scoring tuned for IR-specific language with feedback loops. Author-level sentiment trends, platform-level aggregation, and historical sentiment patterns surface automatically.

Announcement Overhaul

The announcements page has been rebuilt around how IR teams actually work.

Redesigned with intelligent insights. Browse with AG Grid's filtering and sorting, preview any announcement in the side panel, and export selections as HTML reports for board packs or compliance records. Each announcement includes an insights panel showing market reaction, trading context, and key themes.

Automatic announcement linking. Activities—chatter, media, broadcasts—are automatically linked to the announcements they reference. No manual tagging required.

Announcement category auto-sorting. Announcements are categorised automatically and compared against historical performance for similar announcement types. See whether a drilling result outperformed or underperformed relative to past disclosures.

CAR analysis per announcement. Every announcement shows its abnormal return on day zero, pre-announcement trading patterns, and sustained market response. Compare against category averages to understand whether the market reaction was typical or unusual.

Announcements · Reports


Compliance & Alerts

8 alert types. Daily recaps, weekly recaps, price spike alerts, activity spike alerts, abnormal day detection, pre-announcement leak detection, rumour detection, and media coverage alerts—all configurable per user.

In-app notifications. Pre-announcement leak detection and abnormal day detection surface directly in the platform with Z-score classification (extreme positive, positive, normal, negative, extreme negative).

Configurable recap delivery time. Choose when daily and weekly recap emails arrive to match your workflow.


Broadcast Analytics
