📘 What’s an “AI Sentiment Score”?

Some AI investing platforms analyze company communications (earnings calls, filings, news) using natural language processing. A score closer to 100 means stronger bullish sentiment.

But don’t rely on it blindly - combine it with fundamentals, price action, and current macro context.

🧠 Final Thought

AI tools help you filter faster, analyze smarter, and uncover asymmetric opportunities. But the winning edge still comes from combining those tools with smart, independent thinking.
