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}.
Taiwan: macro conditions look supportive (pressure 12/100); the economy is in expansion; 8 observed macro indicators held; real gdp growth is projected at 11.18 for 2026.
Macro pressure
DerivedHigher = more macro pressure. Reads as supportive (sentiment +0.76, −1 stressed … +1 supportive).
Outlook 2026: supportive (projected sentiment +0.74) · a projection from baseline forecasts
Expansion
No turning-point signals — momentum steady, no extreme readings.

Headline reliability: below naive track record (-3% skill vs naive; realized ±0.4816 over 1) · a track record, not a guarantee
Taiwan: forward projections across 8 macro indicators, horizons 2026, 2028, 2030, 2035. 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.
