What This Skill Does

Fetches and summarizes financial news from RSS feeds and market data APIs, then delivers formatted briefings for portfolios, individual tickers, or market indices. Supports US, European, and Japanese markets with AI-generated summaries in English or German. Briefings can be scheduled automatically or generated on demand.

Aggregates premium and free RSS feeds, portfolio data, and AI summarization into one command instead of manually checking multiple financial sites.

When to use it

  • Getting a pre-market summary before the US trading day opens
  • Checking overnight news on specific portfolio holdings
  • Looking up recent headlines for a single stock ticker
  • Sending a scheduled evening briefing to a WhatsApp group
  • Comparing DAX and Nikkei performance alongside S&P 500 moves
