- CACHE_TTL: 4h → 6h (≤36 req/day with ≤9 politics markets)
- GNews only called for is_politics markets (BTC/F&G cover crypto/macro)
- MAX_NEWS_QUERIES_PER_CYCLE=5: BayesianStrategy.reset_cycle() called each
iteration; counter increments only on actual API call (cache hits free)
- 2s asyncio.sleep in news.py finally block after each real HTTP request
- main.py sorts markets: politics first by end_date ascending, so soonest-
resolving markets consume the 5-query budget before others

bot/data/news.py (new):
- NewsClient with in-memory cache (TTL=4h) to stay within 100 req/day limit
- _build_query(): strips dates, punctuation and stopwords from market question
- _score_headlines(): keyword-based pos/neg vote per article, averaged ∈ [-1, +1]
- Degrades to 0.0 on missing key, 403 quota, or network error
bot/strategy/bayesian.py:
- BayesianStrategy(news=NewsClient) — optional, backwards compatible
- Signal 4: GNews sentiment applied as direct log-odds shift (weight=1.5)
so a ±1.0 sentiment score moves a 50% prior to 82%/18%
- +0.10 confidence boost when news signal is present
- NEWS_LOGODDS_WEIGHT constant documented at module level
bot/main.py:
- Instantiate NewsClient, pass to BayesianStrategy, close in finally block
