economic_healthLABSCO SUMMARY
One call answers "is now a bad time".
The useful design choice is composition: rather than making an agent fetch a dozen FRED series and decide what they mean together, macro_regime returns a labelled state with a published scoring band, and the individual tools are there when you want to see what drove it. Signed responses mean the reading can be verified after the fact, which matters if a decision gets audited.
What it is
A hosted macroeconomic server drawing on FRED and ECB indicators. Each tool answers one macro question as a composed reading rather than a raw series, and macro_regime folds seven weighted signals — VIX, yield curve, recession probability, credit spreads, financial stress, Fed stance and consumer sentiment — into a single risk-on, neutral, risk-off or stress call. Every response is signed with ES256K.
What you get
- A 0-100 economic health index across GDP, unemployment and inflation
- Recession probability with the yield-curve signal behind it
- Inflation from four angles — CPI, PCE, PPI and breakeven rates
- The labour market: unemployment, payrolls and jobless claims
- GDP growth with the release schedule attached
- The Fed picture — Fed Funds Rate, EFFR and the FOMC calendar
- The Treasury curve from the short end to the long end, with spreads
- Rates and risk references: SOFR, credit spreads, VIX, BTC, ETH and gold
- Consumer sentiment with retail sales, and a financial stress reading
- Safe-haven flows across gold, the dollar index and crypto references
- The overall regime, scored and labelled

USE CASES
Deciding whether to be risk-on today
One call returns the regime label and the score behind it, drawn from seven weighted signals — enough for an allocation decision without assembling the inputs yourself.
Checking how close a downturn looks
Recession probability comes back with the yield-curve signal that underpins it, and the full curve is there when the shape of the inversion matters more than the headline number.
Reading inflation before a rates call
CPI, PCE, PPI and breakevens together, alongside the Fed Funds Rate and the FOMC calendar, so the question of what is priced in has both halves.
Watching for stress building
VIX, credit spreads and the financial stress index read together, with safe-haven flows as the confirmation that money is actually moving rather than just repricing.
Judging the real economy behind the market
The health index sets the level, and labour, GDP and consumer sentiment say which direction it is moving in — the split between what markets think and what households are doing.
Knowing what is coming this week
GDP release schedules and the FOMC calendar come attached to the readings, so an agent can hold off rather than acting the day before a print.
