Delivering Enhanced Data and Analytics

Dow Jones News Analytics is powered by RavenPack's proprietary computational linguistics and artificial intelligence technology. This innovative tool transforms news into enhanced news data such as sentiment, novelty and relevance.

+ Sentiment analysis of the news leverages two classification techniques - Expert Consensus and
Key Word/Phrase Identification, and identifies whether a news story is positive, negative or neutral.

+ Novelty determines whether a news item is appearing for the first time or is an update to a
previously published story.

+ Relevance provides a numeric indication of the extent to which a story is about a particular
company, enabling users to focus on key stories and avoid those in which a company is
merely mentioned.
