Intelligence brief
The whole picture in one grounded read: observed macro indicators, the derived macro-sentiment composite, the business-cycle regime, and a forward forecast. Derived reads interpret already-observed numbers; the forecast is labelled projections (not observations); an absent series is shown honestly, never fabricated.
Brief
Observed macro, derived sentiment, the business-cycle regime, and forward projections — each traced to the live series it reads. Need it as JSON? GET /api/v1/brief/country/{iso3}.
East Asia & Pacific (excluding high income): macro conditions look supportive (pressure 23/100); the economy is in slowdown; 15 observed macro indicators held; real gdp growth is projected at 4.95 for 2026.
Macro pressure
DerivedHigher = more macro pressure. Reads as supportive (sentiment +0.54, −1 stressed … +1 supportive).
Outlook 2026: supportive (projected sentiment +0.60) · a projection from baseline forecasts
Slowdown
No turning-point signals — momentum steady, no extreme readings.
