News from the 24 hours to Wednesday morning, 4 November 2026.
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 centred on Metlen's five-year LNG supply agreement with Shell, which is seen as positive for the company. Several pieces were written from Shell's perspective, so the tone is somewhat more muted.
What drove it
- Shell LNG supply deal
- US gas sourcing
- Shell-focused coverage
