Today, Market EarlyBird, a UK fintech company that provides a read-only Twitter service for use on trading and research floors, has added new features to the platform to help investment banks and hedge funds track key Brexit and European Election news on the social media platform.  

The EarlyBird service monitors financially relevant news and Tweets, pushing them out to traders and researches so that they can spot trading opportunities. The platform’s AI-curated SmartTrack searches for equities and topics sit at the heart of the service. Filtering the vast number of Tweets on Twitter, they return those that are financially relevant based on the reputation of the sender and the content of the Tweet.

EarlyBird now offers SmartTracks for the Dutch, French, German and Italian elections, and is launching these with a new auto Tweet translation tool to enable users to keep on top of breaking news and Tweets regarding Brexit or the European Elections from anywhere in the world.

Danny Watkins, Market EarlyBird’s CEO, said:

“Twitter is now part of the very fabric of how news moves today, and is an essential tool for traders and analysts who need to see news as it breaks. With investment banks and hedge funds monitoring Brexit and the European Elections closely, to see how they will impact financial markets, our latest SmartTracks and new Tweet translation feature are designed to better equip traders and analysts for managing the uncertainty that is sure to arise.”

EarlyBird’s latest Twitter monitoring tools are available now. For more information about Market EarlyBird and its read-only Twitter platform for regulated financial services, visit: https://marketearlybird.com/europe-elections
