Real time market intelligence

Breaking News. Built for Traders.

Real time market intelligence from former Wall Street traders, proprietary algorithms, powerful market scanning tools and professional trading data, helping traders uncover market moving news faster.

We identify the catalysts actually driving stocks in real time, even when a stock is moving with no headline in sight.

05 / COVERAGE

Small Cap Coverage

Follow small cap and micro cap stocks, where important catalysts are often overlooked.

06 / BEYOND HEADLINES

Unusual Situations

Track less obvious drivers, including rumors, posts on X, trading community activity, chat room pumps and unusual momentum.

07 / FILINGS

SEC Filings

Spot potentially price sensitive details in SEC filings without having to sift through every filing yourself.

The question behind every move

Why is this moving?

Traders already have access to plenty of news. The problem is figuring out what actually matters.

We filter press releases, SEC filings, analyst actions and breaking headlines to identify catalysts that traders can act on or that are actually moving stocks.

Some of the biggest moves have no traditional headline. The reason may be a post on X, an unconfirmed rumor among traders, activity in a trading chat room or unusual momentum. Our team specializes in finding these less obvious catalysts.

When a stock suddenly starts moving and traders ask “Why is this moving?”, we work to uncover and flag the reason in real time.

Beyond the Headline

Breaking News Guys is designed to answer the question active traders ask every day: “Why is this stock moving?” Sometimes the answer is a major breaking headline. Other times it is buried in an SEC filing, discovered through market research or developing outside regular trading hours. Our job is to find it and surface it quickly.

About us

Built by traders, for traders.

Breaking News Guys was created by former Wall Street traders who know the difference between reporting financial news and identifying information active traders can use.

That may be a company filing, a Federal Reserve announcement, monthly jobs or CPI data, or geopolitical news moving the broader market. We combine professional trading experience, proprietary algorithms, market scanning technology and human judgment to find the catalyst and explain why a stock is moving right now.

Speed matters. So does knowing what to filter out.
