## What it does

market-news-analyst collects news with WebSearch and WebFetch, checks events from the past 10 days, and assesses their effect on equity markets and commodities. It covers FOMC, ECB, and BOJ decisions, economic data, large-company earnings, geopolitical events, and commodity price moves.

The skill compares each item with historical market patterns, considers observed price reactions, and produces a structured English report ranked by impact. Results appear in the conversation and can be saved to `reports/` when requested. No API keys are required because the workflow uses built-in web search capabilities. WebSearch and WebFetch must be available, so check those tools before running the analysis.
