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}.
MEQ: macro conditions look cautious (pressure 64/100); the economy is in contraction; 1 turning-point signal flagged; 7 observed macro indicators held; real gdp growth is projected at -1.49 for 2027.
Macro pressure
DerivedHigher = more macro pressure. Reads as cautious (sentiment -0.28, −1 stressed … +1 supportive).

Headline reliability: below naive track record (-7% skill vs naive; realized ±6.467 over 20) · a track record, not a guarantee
MEQ: forward projections across 7 macro indicators, horizons 2027, 2029, 2031, 2036. These are projections, not observations — each carries an optimistic/pessimistic band and a confidence interval, anchored against the latest observed value where one is held.
