Month by Month
Daily Record
The permanent record
Every daily score is appended to a permanent ledger and never edited. This page is the first volume of that archive: in five years you will scroll five of them, and the 2026 war spikes will still be exactly where they happened.
Score Zones Explained
0–39 · Calm
Normal global conditions. No geopolitical inflation pressure worth acting on — business as usual.
40–54 · Stable
Background stress present but contained. Worth watching commodity prices; no action required.
55–67 · Moderate
Elevated stress across multiple signals. Monitor supply chains and energy exposure actively.
68–77 · High Tension
Rising costs and supply risk. Review pricing, hedge energy exposure, check supplier concentration.
78–100 · Extreme
Multiple simultaneous crises. Expect disruption — active risk management territory.
