Engine update 2026-11-05 06:20 UTCDaily brief
The daily economic score is holding steady at 64 today, keeping us in the moderate zone. Things didn't move much overnight because higher energy costs are balancing out quiet movements in other areas like oil at 94.8 and gold at 4075. For your day-to-day life, this stability means gas prices, delivery fees, and shopping costs should stay right where you expect them for now.

Details →Understanding World Tension Meter
WorldTensionMeter combines conflict monitoring, commodity markets, financial stress and global media coverage into one daily score — a macro-risk thermometer for the global economy. Full analysis runs twice daily, market data refreshes every ten minutes, and everything on this site is free with no account required.
Data collection
Every cycle pulls from public data sources across four worlds: our own global news monitoring (40+ sources), event-level conflict records, commodity and financial market feeds, and major world news wires.
Scoring engine
Each signal is normalized to a 0–100 scale against its own multi-year history, so a reading of 70 means today genuinely ranks in the top third of its own multi-year history — not that a keyword list fired.
Published record
Scores publish twice daily at 00:10 and 12:10 UTC. Every daily value is appended to a permanent ledger and never edited, building a historical archive you can audit on the History pages.
