Version History

v1.0.2Feb 24, 2026 - Version note by skill developer:

- Added "Watchlist mode" section: supports user-provided ticker watchlists and outputs a Watchlist Impact Map with monitoring triggers and confidence tags. - Clarified that no absolute buy/sell instructions are produced; the skill offers signals and watch items. - No other major changes; core process and data quality requirements remain the same.

What This Skill Does

Monitors US macroeconomic news from Bloomberg, WSJ, Reuters, and public government sources, then maps potential spillover effects to Vietnamese equity sectors and tickers. Classifies headlines by macro theme and risk tone, applies a data quality gate, and outputs structured watchlists with confidence scores.

Combines paywall fallback logic and a confidence rubric so you get a scored, sourced output rather than a raw news dump you have to evaluate yourself.

When to use it

  • Checking overnight Fed or CPI news before the Vietnam market opens
  • Mapping a USD rally to exporters or import-heavy sectors on VN-Index
  • Monitoring oil price moves for energy and logistics tickers
  • Getting a structured summary when multiple macro events hit the same week
  • Building a daily watchlist from US macro signals for a Vietnam equity portfolio

Example Workflow

Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.

INPUT

User asks: What US macro news from last night could move VN stocks today?

AGENT
  1. 1Fetch fresh headlines from Bloomberg, WSJ, and Reuters Markets
  2. 2Replace any paywalled articles with fallback data from Fed, BLS, BEA, or FRED
  3. 3Classify each headline into macro themes: inflation, rates/yields, USD/FX, oil/energy, growth/employment, geopolitics/trade
  4. 4Tag each item as risk-on, risk-off, or neutral and run the data quality gate
  5. 5Map confirmed themes to Vietnam sectors and tickers, score confidence, and output the four required sections
OUTPUT

Structured report with top headlines and source URLs, theme and tone distribution, Vietnam sector spillover map, and an actionable watchlist with confidence rating and uncertainty notes
