The Coronavirus news story — with its global reach and surfeit of detail — is moving faster than any event I recall covering in 30 years.
At Bloomberg, we are leveraging news automation to publish stories highlighting how companies and industries are being affected.
The first is a “tracker” that taps into data collected by Bloomberg to count cases and deaths and break them down by country. The story is accessible via the topic code {NI CVIRUSTRK <GO>}.
The second pulls together a list of companies being written about in news articles or analyst research. {NI VRUSIMPT <go>}
The third narrows the search to companies citing coronavirus within the context of earnings. {NI CORONAERN <GO>}
News alerts are available on all three stories.
