Search FTSE 100 news
Every story and headline we have analysed, 30 September 2026 to 26 October 2026. Nothing is removed: older coverage stays searchable.
How to read a score. 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.
