Market media literacy as a daily game

Cap or No Cap works because markets regularly produce stories that sound invented. The game rewards reading the claim carefully instead of judging it by how normal it sounds.

A real headline is not a recommendation, and a fake is not a forecast. The game tests recognition and verification only.

Common questions

What does cap mean?

In the game, cap means the headline is fabricated; no cap means it describes a real market story.

Is there a new set every day?

The game is designed around a daily headline set.

Are real headlines investment advice?

No. Their inclusion documents a story for the game and does not recommend a trade.
