Clearly, lumping multiple unrelated news articles into the same post is a forced, clumsy solution -- if for no reason other than failing to clue in the reader regarding new content.

Perhaps a more elegant approach would be to alter the posts, somehow?  With each one already being new, pertinent, unique, and containing a nontrivial, enlightening payload, what other qualities must each posses to reduce its ...'bumpishness'?
No, it does not create a mess if you properly format it like I tend to do. Use this:
Code:
[hr][hr]
to separate with two lines. It really looks nice in my opinion. This is just my suggestion (not a solution); either: A) merge posts;

See boldface. How would a reader know when fresh content has been added?

B) Do not post so frequent that you have a lot of posts in a row. There's really no need to post so many "news articles" each day in a single thread.

Not sure I understand.  No need?  What, praytell, does that mean?  Are we discussing personal preferences, or forum rules?

Or would it be more appropriate to simply start a new topic, as more 'bearish news' come to light?
Actually I think that it might be even worse considering how many news articles you've posted so far.

To clarify: The posts aren't simply cut & paste quotes (or screen grabs, as is the case with the 'bullish news' sister thread). Rather, original content containing quotations and citing sources.
At the risk of sounding brash, have you read any of the posts in question?
