Editorial Policy

FINNSIGN publishes market coverage that people may use to make sense of their investments. That calls for a clear account of who is behind our articles and how they are produced and checked. This is it.

Who is behind our articles

Our articles are published under the byline Julia Peters. Julia Peters is a pen name used by the FINNSIGN editorial team. It does not refer to a single individual, and we do not attribute personal experience, credentials or opinions to it. Every article is produced through the process described on this page, which combines AI tools with automated checks and human editorial oversight. The pen name is also described on its own page: Julia Peters.

Sources

Our coverage starts from public reporting by established news outlets, official releases (the Federal Reserve, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Treasury, company filings and earnings reports) and market-data providers. We link to or name our sources, and we do not republish another outlet’s article: a piece that only restates someone else’s reporting is not one we publish.

How we use AI

We use AI models to help research and draft articles, so the Julia Peters byline does not mean that a single human journalist wrote the text. Drafting is guided by strict house rules: add context and analysis rather than paraphrase a single source, use real market data for the numbers, never invent a statistic, a quote or an event, and never frame a story as a recommendation to buy or sell.

Checks before publication

Every draft goes through several independent checks before it can be published:

• A separate validation pass reviews the draft for factual consistency with its sources, unsupported or unverifiable claims, and language that reads as advice.
• An originality check measures how closely the draft tracks its source text, so a close rewrite of someone else’s story is caught mechanically, not by opinion.
• Human review. Any draft that does not clearly pass is held for an editor, who can correct it, send it back or reject it. We also limit how much we publish each day, so that volume never outruns our ability to review it.

What “Reviewed by an editor” means

When an editor has read an article in full and approved it for publication, the article says so: “Reviewed by an editor” next to the date, and in the note at the end of the piece. Articles published after passing our automated checks alone say that instead. We only show the label where a person actually did the review.

Images

We only use a photograph when we are permitted to, and we credit it. Otherwise an article carries no image, or an illustration we generated ourselves and label as AI-generated, never depicting real people or charts that could be mistaken for data. When a story is about a specific company, an editor may add that company's logo to the illustration and checks it before it is published.

Corrections

When we get something wrong, we fix it. If you spot an error, write to [email protected] with the article link. Material corrections are made promptly, and an article that cannot be corrected is taken down.

Not advice

Our coverage is for information only. It explains what moved and why; it does not account for your circumstances and is not financial, investment, tax or legal advice. Market data shown on the site may be delayed.

Independence

Advertising pays for the site. It does not influence which stories we cover or what they say, and we do not publish paid or sponsored articles.
