Is the recap just AI rewriting headlines?
It is a synthesized session narrative. Treat it as a starting brief. If a claim matters to a position, open the underlying news or filing.
PRODUCT — WATCH
Market Recaps
WATCHA session write-up you can finish before your coffee cools — drivers, leadership, and the stories that actually moved sectors.
What a recap is
A recap is not a list of index closes. It is a short narrative of the session: macro headlines, earnings surprises, sector leadership, and the regulatory or liquidity notes that showed up in the tape.
The point is to tell you what led, what lagged, and why that split matters, so you do not have to reconstruct the day from five homepages and a brokerage app.
In the app, recaps are a dated list you can filter by range. That is how you review a week on Sunday without living in a clip feed. Read one write-up, then decide whether you need the heatmap or a company page.
Treat the recap as a brief you can argue with. If a sentence names a holding, open the news or the filing. AI can flatten a risk factor. The recap is the map, not the trade.

How to use a recap without turning it into another tab
Step 1
Read yesterday before you open a watchlist
The recap answers whether the day was one sector or the whole tape. That question is cheaper than twenty charts.
Step 2
Note the two themes that touch your book
If you imported a portfolio, match leadership and laggards to what you own. Ignore the rest on purpose.
Step 3
Open news only for those names
The recap is allowed to be incomplete. When a holding is named, the next click is the story or the filing, not another homepage.
Step 4
Keep a week, not a stream
On Sunday, set a date range and skim. You are checking whether a theme lasted more than one session.
Who the recap is for
This page is for people who need the session explained in one sitting. It is not a replacement for a trading desk or a newsroom.
A good fit if
You research before or after work
One narrative is a routine you can keep. A live blog is not.
You hold names, not just an index fund
Leadership and laggards matter when they explain a line in your book.
You want context before the heatmap
Color without a paragraph is how people invent a story. Read first, then look.
Not the right tool if
You want every ticker mentioned
The recap is a session brief, not a catalog of every print.
You want someone to tell you what to buy today
There are no ideas attached. That is intentional.
Why it is useful
One narrative, not twenty tabs
Macro, earnings, and sector notes sit in the same write-up so you can reconstruct the day in one pass.
Leadership and laggards
The recap calls out what led and what lagged instead of only reprinting the index close.
A handoff to research
When a theme names a ticker you care about, you can open news or the company page from there.
Built for a morning routine
Read it once. Then decide whether you need the heatmap, the screener, or a filing.
Jobs this actually helps with
Pre-market orientation
Catch up on the prior session before you look at overnight futures or your watchlist.
Weekend review
Skim the week's recaps to see whether a theme lasted more than one day.
Explain a portfolio move
Match a holding's day to the sector story in the recap instead of guessing from the chart alone.
Skip the highlight reel
Use the recap when you do not want a stream of clips that never mention the names you own.
Frequently asked questions
Does it cover every ticker?
No. It focuses on the drivers and themes of the session, not a complete catalog of every print.
Can I get recaps without an account?
The public pages explain the product. The daily recaps themselves are in the app after you sign in.
Can I review a whole week?
Yes. The Recaps page has a from/to date range. That is how a Sunday review works without a clip feed.
Should I read the recap or the heatmap first?
Read the recap first when you want the paragraph. Use the heatmap when you only need breadth. Color without a narrative is how people invent a story.
