News flow detail

One company's news record for one day, as the News Flow Tracker agent wrote it: where the mood sits and which way it is moving, the events and factors behind that, a written summary, and the articles it was drawn from.

Opening the page

On News Flow Tracker's Detail tab, click the eye icon in the row's Summary column.
Or open the same panel on the Dashboard and click one of its rows.
Or click a source card in the Souce panel of News Research.

There is no back control on the page itself; the browser's own back button returns you to the list you came from. The page does return you there by itself if the record cannot be loaded.

The News Flow Tracker Detail page for Palantir Technologies: a narrow card on the left reading Date 2026-09-18, Recommendation hold and Competitors with a dash, over a Sentiment Score of 48 in an amber disc beside a red minus 21 percent marked versus previous period, and on the right four cards — Risk Factors listing two items with a count of 2, Positive Events with one item and a count of 1, Macro Factors showing a No Data placeholder and a count of 0, and Negative Events with two items and a count of 2 — above a Detailed Summary section whose Negative Topics and Positive Topics paragraphs carry small numbered citation circles. — The whole record, one screen and a half of it. The date is the day the record covers, not the day you are reading it.

The page at a glance

Three bands, top to bottom: the company card and four factor cards, then a written summary, then the articles behind it. Everything on the page belongs to a single record — one company, one date — so there is nothing here to filter or page through.

The company card

The narrow card at the top left identifies the record.

Element	What it holds
Name and logo	The company, with the logo. The name opens the company's page; the button after the name is the usual two-entry menu — Add to Watchlist and Add to Portfolio.
Date	The date this record covers.
Recommendation	Orbit's overall call for the company — buy, hold or sell, in lower case.
Competitors	The rivals Orbit matched to this company. Two are named and the rest are behind a `+n` that opens on hover; a dash means none were found.
Sentiment Score	The score for this record in a coloured disc, with the change against the previous period underneath it — signed, arrowed, and green for a rise and red for a fall.

The change line is the part worth reading twice: 48 is indifferent on its own, and the −21% is what says the mood is slipping.

Factors and events

Four cards beside the company card, each a list. Every card shows the same thing — a heading, a count badge, and one entry per line — and each is empty on its own when nothing was found, without affecting the others.

Card	What it lists
Risk Factors	Risks attached to the company.
Macro Factors	Wider conditions the coverage tied to it.
Positive Events	Events pushing the mood up.
Negative Events	Events pulling it down.

The number in each badge is that card's own line count, so it is a quick way to see which of the four carried the weight for this record. The two factor cards carry a red warning glyph and the two event cards a face — green and smiling for the positive one, grey and downcast for the negative — which is how the grid reads at a glance before you read a word of it.

Two cards stacked: Risk Factors with a small red warning triangle and the count 2, listing Criticism and uncertainty over NHS contract and Potential reputational risk from executive hire amid controversy, each with a dark blue bar at its left; below it Macro Factors with the same warning glyph and a count of 0, its body holding a No Data placeholder of overlapping grey document shapes. — The two factor cards, one full and one empty. A zero is an answer, not a failure — it means the coverage for this day contained nothing of that kind.

Two cards stacked: Positive Events with a green smiley and the count 1, listing AI-focused partnerships with Method Security, NVIDIA, and Nebius behind a green bar; below it Negative Events with a grey sad face and the count 2, listing Director Alexander Moore sold 16,699 shares and Controversy and criticism around NHS deal and executive hire behind grey bars. — The bar beside each line takes the card's colour, which is what separates the two lists when you are skimming rather than reading.

Detailed Summary

The written part, one block per topic — Negative Topics, Positive Topics and Sustainability Topics, in that order, each present whether or not it has anything to say. A block is a paragraph with small numbered circles sitting inside it at the points where a source was used.

Hovering a numbered circle previews the article behind it — thumbnail, headline, three lines of text and the publication. Clicking it opens that article in a new browser tab, which takes you off Orbit entirely.

The Detailed Summary section: a Negative Topics block holding a paragraph about Palantir's NHS contract with small grey numbered circles one, two and three set into the text, a Positive Topics block holding a paragraph about AI-focused partnerships with circles one and two, and a Sustainability Topics block reading No sustainability-related content identified in the provided articles. — The numbers restart inside each block, so a circled 1 in **Negative Topics** is not the same article as the circled 1 in **Positive Topics**.

The same page with the cursor over the first circled number in the Negative Topics paragraph, which has opened a small white preview card showing a photograph of two people, the headline NHS executive lobbied and the start of a second line, three lines of article text, and the publication Financial Times at the foot. — The preview is what the circle is for; the click beneath it is the only way off the page into the article itself.

Sources

A grid of the articles the summary drew on: thumbnail, headline, publication and a line of text each. The headline is a link to the original article and opens in a new browser tab.

The grid is limited to the articles the numbered circles in the summary actually point at, and to those Orbit has a thumbnail for. If none of them could be matched to a full article, the grid falls back to everything the record collected.

The Sources section holding five cards in a two-column grid, each with a thumbnail image at its left: an article from the Financial Times about an NHS executive, one from GuruFocus about a director selling shares, one from Bloomberg.com about a Labour veteran, one from Yahoo Finance about AI and fair value, and one from The Motley Fool quoting the chief executive on AI safety. — The grid thins out in the second column because only cards with a thumbnail are drawn — an article Orbit could not illustrate is left out rather than shown without its picture.

When a record is thin

Coverage is uneven, and plenty of records carry no events at all — a quiet day, a small company, or a run that only picked up one article. Each of the four cards then shows its own empty state — the overlapping grey pages and the words No Data — and the rest of the page is unaffected: the summary and the sources are still worth reading.

If Orbit cannot match a summary to its sources, the running text is replaced by three closed sections you open one at a time — Positive Topics, Negative Topics and Sustainability Topics. The words are the same; what is missing is the numbering, and with it the links into the articles.
