Flows before surveys
Fiscal flows and Federal Reserve and Treasury operations print daily and lead the cycle. We read them before the soft data catches up.
Balance-sheet mechanics
Who is issuing, who has to absorb it, and what that does to reserves, rates, and risk appetite. Operations, not opinions.
No politics
Our framework is descriptive, not ideological. We don’t care what the deficit should be — only what it is, and where it lands.
