"Partnering with Bloomberg will give people on Twitter the best way to see live financial markets performance combined with the live commentary on the underlying drivers and implications," said Anthony Noto, Twitter's Chief Financial Officer, said in a statement.

"Twitter is one of the fastest ways to find out what's happening in global business and financial markets, and to engage in the live commentary about it," Noto added.

Twitter is on a spree to sign agreements across the spectrum to revive its fortunes.

Twitter signed a deal this week with the US television network CBS to stream both the Democratic and Republican National Conventions scheduled later this month.
