Design Language
```css
:root {
--ink: #111111; /* Near-black body and headline text; rule-thick; masthead */
--paper: #F9F9F7; /* Warm off-white page background — never pure white */
--muted: #737373; /* Secondary text: bylines, tags, captions, sidebar labels */
--rule: #E5E5E0; /* Light warm-grey rule; column separators, widget borders */
--rule-dark: #C8C8C0; /* Darker warm-grey; masthead bar borders, nav separators */
--red: #CC0000; /* Single accent: breaking tag, ticker label, hover states, market decline */
}
/* Semantic data colours (not custom properties) */
.mkt-up { color: #1a6e2e; } /* Market gain — deep forest green */
.mkt-dn { color: #CC0000; } /* Market loss — same as --red */
```
**Palette philosophy:** Near-black on warm near-white — never pure #000 on pure #fff. The warmth in `--paper` (`#F9F9F7`) and `--rule` (`#E5E5E0`) reads as aged newsprint without any texture or filter.

Design Skill
**Target audience:** Readers of quality long-form publications — intellectually curious adults who value depth over speed, accountability in journalism, and the authority of the printed record. Secondary audience: teams building editorial newsletters, digest platforms, news aggregators, and content-forward apps. **Use cases:** - Morning briefing / daily digest newsletters - Editorial news sites and magazine-style publications - Content aggregator dashboards - Curated intelligence products (industry, research, finance) - Internal company knowledge digests **Brand personality:** Authoritative without being stuffy. Independent. Measured urgency — breaking news doesn't mean chaos; it means a pulsing red dot and sober headlines. The aesthetic communicates "we have been doing this for 40 years and we will be doing it 40 years from now." ---
