Expansion of Investment Information Services

SBI Securities Co., Ltd. based in Minato Ward, Tokyo, and AlpacaTech Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of FOLIO Holdings based in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo, are excited to announce an enhancement to their generative AI-powered investment information service, 'Morning & Evening Reports.' This expansion, set to launch on Thursday, August 21, 2025, will introduce investment information for U.S. stocks into the existing service.

The 'Morning & Evening Reports' service has garnered attention, winning the 'Grand Prize' at the 3rd Generative AI Innovation Awards hosted by Google Cloud. It leverages Google's AI assistant, Gemini, and Google Cloud's generative AI services to succinctly summarize key stocks and market trends, making it easier for busy individuals to stay updated on market movements without needing to read lengthy articles.

With the enhancement, users will now have access to investment information pertaining to both Japanese and U.S. stocks, all consolidated into a single report that updates twice daily, similar to the format of a traditional newspaper. This means users can use the service not only for gathering information for their trading activities but also for reviewing the market at the end of the day and planning their investment strategies for the next day.

Features Offered

1. Top

The generative AI summarizes the day's market information. In the morning edition (around 8:15 a.m. JST), users will receive forecasts for the Japanese stock market and evening reflections on the U.S. stock market, while the evening edition (around 6:15 p.m. JST) provides reflections on the Japanese market and forecasts for the U.S. market. The market information is presented in three concise points supplemented by details on significant events and earnings reports that are beneficial for both Japanese and U.S. investments.

2. Materials

This feature analyzes a wealth of news regarding individual stocks to highlight both promising and concerning stocks in both the Japanese and U.S. markets.

3. Trade Opportunities

Utilizing technical analysis, this section identifies stocks in both markets that have triggered buy and sell signals, displaying a maximum of 50 stocks sorted by their winning rates over the past year.

4. Discover

Tailored especially for beginners, this feature presents content that allows users to easily locate stocks associated with popular themes such as 'high-growth stocks' or 'frequently viewed stocks.' In addition to Japanese stocks that are popular for their shareholder benefits, users can view a list of stocks classified as 'Industry Leaders' and 'Intraday Movers' exclusive to U.S. markets, providing a significantly upgraded experience. Approximately 40 special feature contents will be provided daily, enabling even novice investors to discover stocks related to their areas of interest at a glance.
