  • Consumer Pulse Signals (derived)

    US consumer pulse signals (sentiment z-scores, retail/vehicle momentum, anomalies, forecasts)

    Signals derived from FRED's US consumer series: 30-period annualized volatility of monthly changes, 3-month momentum, year-over-year percent change, 3-sigma anomaly flags, naive-drift 1-month forecasts, a per-month cross-series volatility rank, and the University of Michigan sentiment z-score versus its trailing 12-month window. Covers UMCSENT (consumer sentiment index), TOTALSA (total vehicle sales, SAAR) and RSXFS (advance retail sales). All rows are normalized to country_code USA so they join cleanly with US macro data. Raw series: Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis (FRED).

  • US Retail Sales Signals (derived)

    US retail-sales signals

    Monthly US retail-sales signals from Census advance retail data (FRED RSXFS nominal retail trade + RRSFS real retail & food services, 1992-01 ->, seasonally adjusted, keyless except the already-provisioned FRED key): year-on-year change, 3-month momentum, 12-month change volatility, 3-sigma anomaly flags, naive-drift forecasts, 5-year spending z-scores, and contraction/strong-expansion flags. The measured monthly household-spending lens between us-consumer-sentiment-signals (stated sentiment) and quarterly real PCE — the nominal/real split shows when spending growth is prices vs volume. All rows normalized to country_code USA. Raw data: Census Bureau via FRED.

  • Statistics Canada

    Canadian retail-trade intelligence (monthly)

    Monthly Canadian retail-trade intelligence from Statistics Canada (table 20-10-0056-01, 2017-01 onward): province/territory/CMA x month sales momentum (MoM, YoY, 3-month-annualized) with a documented 0-100 retail strength score and provincial ranks, expanding/contracting and 12-month record-high flags, plus — on the Canada rows — an additive decomposition of total YoY growth into the 9 top-level NAICS retail groups' contribution points (they sum exactly to the published total), the top growth driver, ex-auto and ex-auto-and-gasoline headline variants, and industry breadth. Caveats: values in thousands of dollars (kept verbatim); the latest month is preliminary and may be revised. Statistics Canada Open Licence (commercial reuse allowed); source: Statistics Canada.
