WTI Crude Oil-CL=F

NYMEX West Texas Intermediate crude futures — the US oil-price benchmark.

Natural Gas-NG=F

NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas futures — the US natural-gas price benchmark.

Diesel and Heating Oil (ULSD)-HO=F

NYMEX ultra-low-sulphur diesel futures, the wholesale US diesel and heating oil price. Diesel is the freight, rail and farm fuel, so this reads as an industrial and food-logistics cost rather than a consumer one.

Gasoline (RBOB)-RB=F

NYMEX RBOB gasoline futures, the wholesale US gasoline price. This is the price side of the EIA gasoline inventory and product-supplied series, which measure the quantity side of the same market.

Brent Crude Oil-BZ=F

ICE Brent crude futures, the international oil benchmark. Read against WTI (CL=F), the spread separates a global supply event from a US one.

Palladium-PALL

abrdn Physical Palladium Shares, an ETF backed by allocated metal in a vault. Palladium is the gasoline-engine autocatalyst metal, so its price carries a real read on internal-combustion vehicle production.

Platinum-PPLT

abrdn Physical Platinum Shares, an ETF backed by allocated metal in a vault rather than by futures. Platinum is an autocatalyst, refinery and hydrogen-electrolyser input.

Copper-HG=F

COMEX copper futures — an industrial-demand bellwether, sometimes called 'Dr. Copper' for its correlation with global growth.

10Y Treasury Yield-^TNX

The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note — the reference rate for mortgages, corporate borrowing, and equity valuation discount rates.

yieldCurve10y2y-T10Y2Y

10-year minus 2-year Treasury spread, in percentage points. The most watched recession indicator there is: sustained inversion (below 0) has preceded every US recession in the modern era, but with long and variable lead times, and the re-steepening AFTER an inversion has historically been the part that coincides with the downturn rather than the inversion itself

fedFundsRate-DFF

Effective federal funds rate — the actual overnight rate, i.e. where policy is right now rather than where the target range is set

Treasury General Account Balance-treasury:operating_cash_balance:tga_closing_balance

US Treasury's operating cash balance (Daily Treasury Statement) — rising means Treasury is accumulating cash, falling means it's releasing cash through net operations.

financialConditions-NFCI

Chicago Fed National Financial Conditions Index (weekly, standardized — zero is average, positive is tighter than average, negative is looser than average). A single, real composite of credit/leverage/risk conditions across money markets, debt, and equity markets, not this app's own judgment

financialStress-STLFSI4

St. Louis Fed Financial Stress Index (weekly, standardized — zero is average stress, positive is more stress than average). Built from a broad set of real yield, spread, and volatility series, not a single market's read alone

bankDeposits-DPSACBW027SBOG

Deposits, all commercial banks ($ billions, weekly). A fast, real drain-or-build in the banking system's own funding base — a sharp fall is exactly the kind of physical stress signal that showed up ahead of 2023's regional-bank episode

bankCredit-TOTBKCR

Total bank credit, all commercial banks ($ billions, weekly). The broadest read on whether the banking system is actually expanding or contracting its balance sheet — a real, physical lending/holding fact, not a rate or a sentiment index

bankLoans-TOTLL

Loans and leases in bank credit, all commercial banks ($ billions, weekly) — the lending component of bankCredit, excluding banks' securities holdings

commercialIndustrialLoans-BUSLOANS

Commercial and industrial loans, all commercial banks ($ billions, weekly) — credit extended directly to businesses. A real, physical read on whether banks are actually financing business activity or pulling back, independent of what rates or a sentiment survey say

cpiInflationYoY-CPIAUCSL

Headline CPI inflation, year over year. The level the Fed is reacting to, and the number the scheduled release below prints

coreCpiInflationYoY-CPILFESL

Core CPI (excluding food and energy), year over year. Slower moving than headline and the better read on underlying trend, which is why policy leans on it more

unemploymentRate-UNRATE

US unemployment rate. Half of the Fed's dual mandate, and the series behind the Sahm rule — a 0.5pp rise off the recent low has historically marked recessions in real time

businessInventoriesLevel-BUSINV

Total US business inventories, all sectors combined ($ millions, seasonally adjusted). The raw stockpile level — read it alongside businessInventorySalesRatio for whether that stockpile is large relative to what's actually selling

businessInventorySalesRatio-ISRATIO

Total business inventories/sales ratio — months of inventory on hand at the current sales pace, across all sectors. Rising means stock is piling up faster than it's selling (weak demand, or a supply chain overshooting/catching up after a shortage); falling means inventories are lean relative to sales (strong demand, or a genuine supply bottleneck still working through)

retailInventorySalesRatio-RETAILIRSA

Retailers' own inventories/sales ratio — the same read as businessInventorySalesRatio, narrowed to the retail sector specifically, which is closer to consumer-facing shelf stock than the all-sector figure (which also includes manufacturers' and wholesalers' warehouses upstream)

Gasoline Product Supplied-eia:petroleum/cons/wpsup:WGFUPUS2

EIA's real proxy for US gasoline demand, not a survey.

Distillate Inventories-eia:petroleum/stoc/wstk:WDISTUS1

US distillate fuel oil inventories — diesel and heating oil.

Gasoline Inventories-eia:petroleum/stoc/wstk:WGTSTUS1

US total motor gasoline inventories.

Natural Gas Storage-eia:natural-gas/stor/wkly:NW2_EPG0_SWO_R48_BCF

Working natural gas in underground storage, Lower 48 states.

Refinery Utilization-eia:petroleum/pnp/wiup:WPULEUS3

Percent of operable US refining capacity actually running.

Crude Oil Inventories-eia:petroleum/stoc/wstk:WCESTUS1

US commercial crude oil inventories excluding the Strategic Petroleum Reserve — the headline number markets react to every Wednesday.
