Previews say banks will report results during the week of the Budget, with stronger profits expected and concern about a surcharge.

The story's tone is the average of its headlines' own scores. 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.

How it works. Every morning an AI model reads the UK business news about each FTSE 100 company and scores how good or bad it is for the company, from −10 to +10. Pages update by about 07:45 UK time.

Not investment advice. MarketFrame rates the tone of news coverage. It is general information, not a recommendation to buy or sell anything. The scores are not share-price data or forecasts: a good score doesn't mean a share will rise, and a bad one doesn't mean it will fall.
