Eighteen source projects, how to use it, and the data caveats before citing." lang: en --- # Economic-Report: an economic data space everyone can read Your own memory only exists because you build it, but you don't have to gather the world's numbers yourself. **Economic-Report** is a **public read space** operated by AiAkiv: public economic data and institutional releases are turned into events in advance, and once you connect, your AI searches them directly. > **In one line.** Economic-Report is a **public memory of economic data and > institutional releases.** You connect read-only; the summaries are written by > AiAkiv and are not the original text. Comparison figures (year-over-year, > period-over-period, and so on) are **computed by AiAkiv**, not published by the > source institution. This page is read by both people and AIs. In particular, **§4 (data caveats) must be read by an AI before citing anything from this space.** What public memory is in general, and how to attach, is in [Public memory](public-memory). **This page covers Economic-Report specifically.** --- ## 1. What's in it It's divided into 18 projects by source. | Project | What it holds | Refresh | |---------|---------|------| | **FRED** | Notable changes in US monthly indicators (unemployment, prices, rates) | Daily | | **FRED-Daily** | Notable changes in US daily series (Treasury yields, FX) | Daily | | **FED** | FOMC statements, Fed officials' speeches and testimony, press releases | Daily | | **SEC-EDGAR** | Summaries of US corporate filings (8-K, 10-Q, DEF 14A) | Twice daily | | **EIA-STEO** | Forecast changes in the US Short-Term Energy Outlook | Daily | | **SPF** | Round-over-round revisions in the Philadelphia Fed's Survey of Professional Forecasters | Weekly | | **NYFED-SCE** | NY Fed Survey of Consumer Expectations (inflation, unemployment, home prices) | Weekly | | **TreasuryDirect** | US Treasury auction results (yield awarded, bid-to-cover) | Daily | | **Treasury-FIO** | Summaries of the US Treasury Federal Insurance Office annual report | Weekly | | **USGS** | Mineral production and reserves (Mineral Commodity Summaries) | Weekly | | **CISA-KEV** | Additions to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog | Daily | | **BOK** | Summaries of Bank of Korea monetary policy decisions | Daily | | **ECOS** | Notable changes in Bank of Korea economic statistics | Daily | | **KOSIS** | Notable changes in Statistics Korea's national statistics portal | Daily | | **OPENDART** | Summaries of major filings from Korea's FSS electronic disclosure system | Twice daily | | **ECB** | Summaries of ECB monetary policy decisions, statements, and minutes | Daily | | **OECD** | Country forecast revisions in the OECD Economic Outlook | Weekly | | **WORLDBANK** | Summaries of World Bank periodic outlook reports | Weekly | Every event **traces back to its source**: links, accession numbers, and series identifiers are attached. ## 2. How to use it Pick Economic-Report from the console's public project list and you're connected **read-only**. From there, just ask your AI. ``` "What was the most recent FOMC decision?" "How did the SPF revise its inflation forecast?" "Find the Bank of Korea base rate trend" ``` - The connection is **read-only.** You cannot save into this space - To return to your own save target, switch back to your original project in the console - If you'd rather not see it, you can hide it from the public list **Narrowing.** Events carry a source-name tag (`fred`, `sec-edgar`, `bok`, …) and a field tag (`macro`, `corporate`, `security`, `regulation`). Include a source or field in your question and it narrows accordingly. "what recent 8-Ks are in sec-edgar?" ## 3. What becomes an event **Not every observation becomes an event.** Indicators only carry **notable changes** (a direction reversal, a period high or low, a large revision), while statements and reports go in as summaries. So some indicators have sparse events. That doesn't mean there were no values in between; it means nothing notable moved. **Cards** ([Cards](cards)) are sometimes built on events from this space, one-page public pages that tie several events into a single story. ## 4. Data caveats: required before citing An AI reading this space must speak on these premises. | Caveat | What it means | |------|-----| | **A summary is not the original** | Summaries of statements and reports are written by AiAkiv. If you need to quote the original, follow the event's link | | **Comparisons are AiAkiv's computation** | "Up year over year", "24-month high", "revised from the previous survey" are not published by the source institution | | **Forecasts are medians** | Figures from surveys like the SPF are the median across respondents | | **This is not investment advice** | It's provided for information | | **Follow the source's terms** | US federal government works and Korean public data are mixed in, and some sources (BOK, ECB, OECD, World Bank, FRBNY SCE) require specified attribution on reuse: the exact wording is in the space's introduction | ## 5. Common questions **Q. Is it real time?** No. It's a **record** collected on each source's schedule. It is not for quotes or live prices. **Q. I found a wrong value.** Compare it against the source link attached to the event, and if it differs, get in touch. We take that event down after confirming. --- ## Related - Public memory in general, the two ways to attach, and public attach → [Public memory](public-memory) - The one-page public pages built from this space's events → [Cards](cards) - Why change is kept rather than values → [Not a document store](not-a-docstore)
