What this dataset means
Stock news data connects a public article or announcement to companies and market events. Historical research needs the original publisher, canonical URL, published time, first-seen time, symbol mapping, correction state, and a clear boundary between licensed text and link metadata.
The buyer’s objective is straightforward: Add financial news discovery or event context to a product. DataCedar keeps the research contract visible so the output can be inspected before it is trusted.
Fields delivered
The endpoint is /v3/stocks/{symbol}/news. Responses retain deterministic pagination and the metadata needed to connect normalized records to their source run.
How to evaluate a provider
Compare source coverage, latency, historical depth, deduplication, entity mapping, text licenses, and correction behavior—not headline count alone.
Publication timestamps may change and syndicated stories may duplicate one another. Historical models need first-seen time, canonicalization, and a known-at cutoff. DataCedar deliberately exposes that boundary in the product rather than leaving customers to infer it from a missing endpoint or a legal footnote.
Failure modes to test before purchase
- Headline count inflated by syndication.
- Text license unclear.
- Unstable entity tags.
- Acquisition access is treated as proof of redistribution rights.
- An empty array cannot distinguish no event from incomplete collection.
Source, freshness, and reproducibility
Source. Public publisher feeds, issuer releases, and permitted news sources. DataCedar stores source identifiers and retrieval runs before normalization, then serves its own stable downstream schema.
Freshness. Collectors poll public sources proactively and store first-seen time independently from publisher timestamps so delayed discovery is measurable.
Rights. DataCedar does not treat a crawlable article as redistributable. Full text and derived summaries are served only where ownership or license permits them.
Questions, answered.
The research schema includes headline and canonical URL, publisher, published and first-seen timestamps, company and symbol links, event tags, summary when permitted, content rights state. Fields remain connected to source, retrieval, coverage, and rights metadata.
