What is the difference between a market brief and analysis?
Market briefs summarize or translate media reports and institutional releases, with links to the original sources. Analysis articles are written here after checking recent sources, with facts separated from commentary.
How often are briefs updated?
Configured sources are checked every 3 hours, then auto-translated and published. The default Chinese feed only lists briefs that already have a Chinese title; English originals stay on /en/news until translation lands.
Is this investment advice?
No. Information and analysis are for reference only and are not personal investment or trading advice.
Can I subscribe to market briefs?
Yes. The news page has an RSS button. The feed is https://99gold.net/news/rss.xml and is Traditional Chinese. It lists published briefs only and is not investment advice.
