How to read the sentiment score

Scale: -1 (very negative) to +1 (very positive). In practice almost always between -0.3 and +0.3.
Neutral band: -0.15 to +0.15 (the shaded area on the bar) - no clear lean in the news.
Above +0.15 = coverage leans positive · below -0.15 = leans negative.
via Alpha Vantage = AI sentiment on AV's news feed (fresh for individual stocks). via headline analysis = we score the fresh Alpaca/Finnhub headlines ourselves (a finance word list on top of VADER) - used when AV data is stale, which it usually is for ETFs like QQQ/SPY.
It measures the tone of the news, not a price forecast. The "hit rate" table below checks, in hindsight, whether the tone actually predicted direction.
