Score 695 / HEAVY STRESS, up 121 points week-over-week — direction is from a very high base.
What follows is the supporting evidence: which signals fired, how today compares to recent history, and what the cascade is showing.
Today’s risk score is 695 (uncapped raw total). That’s down 20 points from Friday, and up 121 over the past week. For how this compares to past economic crises, see Historical Parallels.
1. Where the score is now — Today’s raw risk score is 695. Yesterday’s snapshot was 715 (down 20 points). One week ago it was 574. One month ago it was 439. The score number and its direction are more informative than the named level when conditions stay at the top of the scale.
2. How we calculate it — Each detected signal adds points (leading macro/fundamental signals are weighted 1.5× vs lagging technical signals). Signals span VIX, drawdowns, death crosses, macro (FRED), fundamentals, and breadth. The raw total is 695; we also show a 0–100 capped score (100) for side-by-side comparison.
3. What the named level means — The level HEAVY STRESS maps the raw score to a bucket on this model’s scale (Low → Moderate → Elevated → High → Critical → Severe → Extreme → Catastrophic). It tells you how many signals are stacking, not what will happen next. It is a model severity label, not a forecast, not a bank rating, and not personalized advice.
4. Snapshots and history — Each weekday build saves a daily snapshot. The trend chips above show how today’s score compares to prior snapshots (1 day, 1 week, 1 month). History accumulates automatically across builds so you can track direction over time.

Yield curve. In the measures we track, the curve is not inverted right now — one classic warning light is off, though other risks can still show up elsewhere.
Corporate borrowing costs. Those spreads are not flashing our “credit stress” rule right now — think calmer corporate funding conditions than in a stressed credit episode (still watch the detailed table above).
Bank lending (aggregate). The latest week did not show an extreme move by our thresholds. This series is the whole banking system’s credit stock, not one institution.
Federal Reserve balance sheet. The latest weekly change was moderate — a backdrop indicator for liquidity and asset holdings.
Treasury yields. The 2-year (sensitive to Fed expectations) is about 4.65%; the 10-year (longer financing and mortgage anchor) about 4.96%. When short rates sit well above long rates, markets are often weighing slower growth or future cuts — compare with the curve rows in the macro table.
Reality check. These sentences are simple rules on top of delayed public data — orientation for people you care about, not trading instructions or deposit advice.

| Badge | Name | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| DC | Death Cross | The 50-day moving average has dropped below the 200-day moving average. This means recent prices (~2.5 months) are consistently lower than the longer-term average (~10 months) — momentum has shifted downward. It's a lagging indicator: by the time it triggers, the price drop has already happened. Better at confirming a trend than predicting one. When multiple stocks show death crosses simultaneously, it usually reflects broad market weakness rather than individual company problems. |
| GC | Golden Cross | The opposite of a death cross — the 50-day moving average has risen above the 200-day moving average. This is a bullish signal indicating upward momentum. Like the death cross, it's a lagging indicator that confirms a trend already underway. |
| OB | Overbought (RSI ≥ 70) | The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at or above 70, meaning the asset has had strong recent gains and may be due for a pullback. It doesn't mean the price will drop — assets can stay overbought for extended periods in strong uptrends — but it signals that buying pressure may be getting stretched. |
| OS | Oversold (RSI ≤ 30) | RSI is at or below 30, meaning the asset has had sharp recent declines and may be due for a bounce. This can represent a buying opportunity (value investors look for oversold quality assets), but it can also signal that something is fundamentally wrong. Context matters — oversold in a healthy market is different from oversold during a crisis. |
| Term | Full Name | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| RSI | Relative Strength Index | A momentum indicator ranging from 0 to 100 that measures the speed and magnitude of recent price changes. Calculated over the last 14 trading days. Below 30 = oversold (potential bounce), above 70 = overbought (potential pullback), 30–70 = neutral. RSI is a lagging indicator — it shows what momentum has been, not what it will be. |
| 50-day MA | 50-Day Moving Average | The average closing price over the last 50 trading days (~2.5 months). Represents the short-to-medium-term trend. When the current price is above the 50-day MA, the short-term trend is generally positive. |
| 200-day MA | 200-Day Moving Average | The average closing price over the last 200 trading days (~10 months). Represents the long-term trend. Institutional investors often use this as a key support/resistance level. The relationship between the 50-day and 200-day MA produces death cross and golden cross signals. |
| 1D / 1W / 1M | Percentage Change | Price change over the last 1 day, 1 week, or 1 month respectively. Green = positive (price went up), red = negative (price went down). Large single-day or weekly drops trigger warning signals in the risk engine. |
| P/E Ratio | Price-to-Earnings | The stock price divided by earnings per share. Measures how much investors are paying for each dollar of earnings. A high P/E can mean the stock is overvalued or that investors expect high future growth. A low P/E can mean the stock is undervalued or that the business is struggling. Always compare P/E within the same industry — tech companies normally have higher P/E than banks. |
| D/E | Debt-to-Equity Ratio | Total debt divided by shareholder equity. Measures how much a company relies on borrowing. Below 0.5 = conservatively financed, 0.5–1.0 = moderate, above 2.0 = heavily leveraged. High debt becomes dangerous when interest rates rise or revenue declines. |
| ROE | Return on Equity | Net income divided by shareholder equity. Measures how efficiently a company generates profit from its shareholders' investment. Above 15% is generally strong. Negative ROE means the company is losing money. |
| Short-term 1–4 weeks |
Momentum / technical plays — oversold bounces, mean reversion, technical pattern setups. |
| Medium-term 1–3 months |
Earnings revision plays — improving fundamentals not yet priced in. |
| Long-term 3–12 months |
Value plays — quality businesses at discounted prices with macro tailwinds. |
| Low (1–3) | 3+ signals agree, strong fundamentals, macro supportive, limited downside history. Position: 3–5% |
| Medium (4–6) | 2 signals agree, some data gaps or mixed macro. Position: 1–3% |
| High (7–10) | Single signal, weak fundamentals, adverse macro, or speculative. Position: 0.5–1% |
Opportunities are ranked by risk-adjusted potential, not "low risk / high yield." Higher expected return generally comes with higher risk. The system surfaces the best opportunities at each risk level and is explicit about what could go wrong.
