DataSift Financial: Social Feeds for Financial Services

Markets are conversations. As trends break out, nothing provides a view on the market quicker than social media. From newsmakers and journalists, to market participants and official sources, everyone is taking to the social sphere first. As a market participant, if you are working without a social feed, you are only seeing a small fragment of the whole story.
