# Market Pulse

> Driven's Market Pulse Skill gives a fast, structured read on what the market is doing right now: indices, movers, sectors, and the news driving them.

Market Pulse is Driven's quick market-overview workflow. It answers "what's going on in the market right now?" in a structured, scannable form, so you can get oriented in seconds rather than piecing it together from a dozen tabs.

## When to use it

* Starting your day and wanting a fast read on the market
* Checking the tone of the market before making a decision
* Getting context on a sudden move before digging deeper

For a deep, cited analysis of a theme, use [Deep Research](/skills/deep-research) instead. Market Pulse is about speed and orientation, not depth.

## Framework

Market Pulse is built on named, citable frameworks rather than a loose prompt: **Jegadeesh-Titman momentum** for the strength and persistence of moves, and **market breadth** indicators for how broadly the move is shared across names. Both run as real code over live data, so each briefing is reproducible and auditable.

## What it does

Market Pulse pulls the current state of the major indices, notable movers, sector performance, and the news driving the action, then organizes it into a quick briefing. It is the natural Skill behind a morning check-in.

## Prompt template

```text theme={null}
Give me a market pulse: index levels and moves, biggest movers, sector performance, and the main news driving today's action.
```

## Example

```text theme={null}
Quick market pulse for US markets this morning. What's moving and why?
```

## Tips

* **Scope it to your market.** Ask specifically for US, Hong Kong, or A-share markets to keep the read focused.
* **Pair it with a watchlist scan.** Follow a market pulse with "now check my watchlist for anything notable" to go from the broad picture to your names.
* **Schedule it.** Market Pulse is a great backbone for a daily pre-market briefing. See [Create a market briefing](/guides/scheduled/create-a-market-briefing).
