Tone of the day
What the score means. Each score rates how good or bad the news was for the company, from −10 (clearly bad) to +10 (clearly good). 0 is neutral, and anything beyond ±6 is strong and rare. It rates the coverage, not the share price.
Why it scored this way
Coverage was light, led by a new aviation tie-up with MMF. A leadership announcement in Australasia and a promotional event notice were minor and broadly neutral.
What drove it
- MMF aviation partnership
- Australasia CEO announcement
- 10K Series event
