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 dominated by Indian customs holding Diageo's Scotch shipments in a tariff dispute, alongside a downgrade and a pubs boss suggesting Guinness's surge could be past its high point. Share purchases by insiders offered some offsetting support.
What drove it
- India shipment seizure
- analyst downgrade
- Guinness demand
