Use Trader News to check TSLA for items from the last 12 hours. Separate news headlines from SEC 8-K filings. For each item, show its original link, source, category and New York publication time. Tell me what is new and what has not been verified. Do not turn a news tag into a buy or sell signal.SEC requests need your own SEC_USER_AGENT in your environment. If no new items appear, Claude should report the window and check state instead of inventing headlines.
Example Claude response
Illustrative · based on the source project's dated example
Oct 19, 2026 · 10:15 a.m. New York time
TSLA news check · historical example
Yahoo feed: 16 headlines since 8:00 a.m. New York time.
Some items were tagged earnings or deal. No new SEC 8-K appeared in this check.
The tags describe topics; open the original items before drawing a conclusion.
A separate 10:52 quote in the source is not the time of this news snapshot. Topic tags do not establish a cause for a price move.
Read the original Trader News exampleWhat it checks
| Field | Explanation |
|---|---|
Headlines | Recent ticker news with source links and publication times. |
SEC filings | New company 8-K filings, kept separate from articles about them. |
What's new | Items not shown in the previous check, newest first. |
Price context | The ticker's move from the previous close, with its own quote time. |
Keep company filings separate from media interpretations. Earnings and deal tags organize items; they are not verified trade signals.
Limits & sources
What the result can confirm

Yahoo feeds can lag or miss items. Filing time and article publication time differ. Open original items before relying on a summary.
