Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CP) set September and third-quarter grain transportation records in Canada and the United States. September 2026 volumes reached 2.94 million metric tonnes and 30,324 carloads in Canada and 2.51 million metric tonnes and 26,236 carloads in the U.S. July–September records covered tonnes and carloads in each country and combined. All new records surpassed 2020 marks; Canada recorded its second consecutive record month.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.
