About Tape and Tick

tapeandtick is a specialist website for those who need clear, factual information on Asian markets. It covers major stock indices and the exchanges they trade on, providing session by session tracking. The site is organised into sections including Indices, Asset classes, Sectors, and Market structure, as well as News, Central banks and macro, Companies, and Regulation. The focus is solely on providing concrete data and reporting from this region.

All news stories on tapeandtick are produced by rewriting information from established, named sources. Each source is linked to allow for verification. Where possible, facts are checked against multiple reports to ensure accuracy. Every story carries a clear publication date. Nothing in the reporting is invented, speculated upon, or presented as exclusive analysis; the value is in the careful compilation and clear presentation of verified information.

The site builds permanent reference pages on core entities such as specific Indices, Exchanges, Sectors, and Companies, as well as Central banks, Currencies, and Regulators. Each reference entry is built around a standardised facts table containing key details. This is accompanied by explanatory sections and a real, credited photograph of the subject, such as an exchange building or central bank headquarters. These pages are updated as the markets change, for example when a company moves to a new sector classification.

This website is independent and is not affiliated with any exchange, regulator, financial institution, or company it reports on. It does not contain any betting, trading, or investment advice. Any errors that are identified in our content are corrected promptly and transparently. All corrections are listed publicly on a dedicated page at tapeandtick.com/corrections/.
