## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability signalfuse-social-sentiment-equity-ticker-1a7bc8b8
```

Example prompt: What's the current social sentiment for HOOD — is it bullish, bearish, or neutral, and how confident is the signal?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need NLP-derived social sentiment for a specific equity ticker, particularly when you want a pre-computed FinBERT-class model score rather than raw social data. Prefer this over general web search sentiment when you need a structured, machine-readable label and confidence score suitable for algorithmic trading decisions. Best suited for single-ticker, real-time sentiment lookups within an autonomous trading agent workflow.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported or invalid ticker symbol returns an error or empty result
- Stale data if social signal has not been refreshed recently (check updated_at)
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient or payment header is malformed
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in a short window
- Ticker with insufficient social data may return low-confidence or neutral results
