Morning Briefing

Overview

Institutional pre-market desk analyst briefing. Collect broad market indices, sector performance, sentiment, top movers, and upcoming catalysts in a single parallel wave, then cross-reference to produce a directional bias.

Announce at start: "Running pre-market briefing -- collecting indices, sectors, sentiment, movers, and catalysts."

Data Collection

Wave 1 (ALL calls in parallel)

Tool	Parameters	Priority
tradingview_market_indices	(defaults)	REQUIRED
sentiment_fear_greed	(defaults)	REQUIRED
finnhub_market_status	(defaults)	REQUIRED
tradingview_sector_performance	(defaults)	REQUIRED
tradingview_top_gainers	limit=10	ENRICHMENT
tradingview_top_losers	limit=10	ENRICHMENT
tradingview_volume_breakout	limit=10	ENRICHMENT
finnhub_market_news	limit=5	ENRICHMENT
finnhub_earnings_calendar	from=today, to=today+5	ENRICHMENT
fred_economic_calendar	limit=10	ENRICHMENT

If any REQUIRED call fails, report the failure explicitly and proceed with available data. ENRICHMENT failures are silently omitted.

Analysis

DO NOT reproduce raw tool output. Cross-reference the collected data to answer:

1. Risk appetite agreement -- Do index levels/futures direction and the Fear & Greed score point the same way? Flag any divergence as a caution signal.
2. Sector divergence -- Which sectors diverge from the broad market direction? A defensive sector leading in a risk-on tape (or vice versa) is notable.
3. Volume clustering -- Do volume breakout names cluster in one or two sectors? Flag as a potential rotation signal and name the sectors.
4. Catalyst check -- Are any earnings or economic releases in the next 5 days likely to move the broad market or a specific sector? Highlight date, event, and expected impact.

Output Format

Bullet list of upcoming earnings and economic events that MUST include date and expected impact magnitude (high / medium / low).

Bias

Present a single structured verdict:

• Direction: RISK-ON | RISK-OFF | NEUTRAL
• Confidence: HIGH | MEDIUM | LOW
• Key risk: One sentence identifying the biggest threat to the bias.

Limitations

Data from TradingView and Yahoo Finance is 15-minute delayed. CBOE and sentiment data is end-of-day. Verify critical levels with real-time data before executing trades.

Common Mistakes

• Dumping raw JSON or full tool responses instead of synthesized tables.
• Ignoring divergences between sentiment score and index direction -- these are the most valuable signals.
• Listing movers without connecting them to sector rotation or catalysts.
• Stating a bias without citing the supporting data points that justify it.
