What we track for MSFT

Every hour, SentimentFX collects the latest Microsoft news from major financial publishers and RSS feeds, then scores each headline using FinBERT — a transformer model fine-tuned on financial text. The output is a sentiment score between -1 (very bearish) and +1 (very bullish), and we plot the daily average against MSFT price so you can see how news flow moves with the market.

Microsoft is a cloud and enterprise software giant; AI partnerships and Azure growth drive sentiment, which makes MSFT an especially useful ticker for sentiment-driven analysis. Our pipeline pulls from Yahoo Finance and other major financial newswires, deduplicates by URL, and only stores headlines whose title actually mentions MSFT or a recognised alias.
