# IUX24 — Financial News & Market Intelligence

> Multilingual financial news reader covering global markets, economy, and business — with real-time market data, an economic calendar, ticker-level deep dives, and an AI chat assistant.

IUX24 publishes editorial coverage in 8 languages. English is served at the bare path; the other seven locales are URL-prefixed (e.g. `/ja`, `/ar/market-news`). Every page emits hreflang alternates for all 8 locales plus `x-default`. Article bodies and market data are fetched from upstream APIs at request time, so the live article inventory is published through the sitemaps linked below — this file maps the site's stable structure.
