Dallas Fed Weekly Economic Index macro pulse (weekly)

Weekly US macro pulse from the Dallas Fed's Weekly Economic Index (keyless official workbook, 2008 to present): the WEI — the common component of ten daily/weekly consumer, labor and production series, scaled to four-quarter GDP growth — with trailing 4- and 13-week moving averages, week-over-week / 4-week / 13-week momentum, a trailing-52-week z-score, documented growth-regime labels (contraction / below-trend / trend / above-trend on the GDP-growth scale), contraction, above-trend and rapid-heating/cooling flags, and a contraction-episode streak counter. An online shop joins orders to week_ending for demand-regime features, a subscription business joins churn/dunning cohorts, and a sales team joins pipeline timing. Caveats: the WEI is a model-based nowcast, not observed GDP — weekly prints are noisy, so the 13-week moving average is the signal the Dallas Fed itself headlines; history is revised by the publisher.
