Morning Briefing
Overview
Institutional pre-market desk analyst briefing. Collect broad market indices, sector performance, market breadth, 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, breadth, sentiment, movers, and catalysts."

Analysis
DO NOT reproduce raw tool output. Cross-reference the collected data to answer:
- Risk appetite agreement -- Do index levels/futures direction, market breadth, and the Fear & Greed score point the same way? Flag any divergence as a caution signal.
- Breadth confirmation -- Are advancers/decliners, % above SMA50/SMA200, and new highs/lows confirming the index move or warning that leadership is narrow?
- Sector divergence -- Which sectors diverge from the broad market direction? A defensive sector leading in a risk-on tape (or vice versa) is notable.
- Volume clustering -- Do volume breakout names cluster in one or two sectors? Flag as a potential rotation signal and name the sectors.
- 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
Market Pulse
Include VIX, S&P 500, NASDAQ Composite, Dow Jones. Note market session status (pre-market / regular / after-hours).
Fear & Greed
Single line: score, label (Extreme Fear / Fear / Neutral / Greed / Extreme Greed), and one-week trend direction.
Market Breadth
Single line: advance/decline ratio, % above SMA50, % above SMA200, and whether new highs or new lows dominate.
Sector Map
Sort by Change % descending. Signal column: "Leading", "Lagging", or "Inline".
Top Movers
Three sub-tables (Gainers, Losers, Volume Breakouts) each with: Ticker, Name, Change %, Volume context. Limit 5 rows per table.
Week Ahead
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.
- Ignoring weak breadth when indexes are green -- narrow leadership can invalidate a risk-on read.
- Listing movers without connecting them to sector rotation or catalysts.
- Stating a bias without citing the supporting data points that justify it.
