ECHOROCK MODEL

A fast read on where the economy sits in the cycle.

The model is a six-stage economic-risk framework. It is built to separate normal monthly noise from weakness that is becoming persistent and broad enough to matter.

What it measures

Whether stress is spreading across real activity, labor and financial conditions — and whether those signals are confirming one another. The output runs from Expansion to Contraction; it is not a short-term stock-market signal.

Why these indicators

Each input covers a different part of the cycle: Industrial Production for real activity; unemployment and jobless claims for labor deterioration; the 10Y–3M curve for prior monetary and financing pressure; Baa credit spreads for market confirmation; and the Sahm rule for late labor confirmation.

Why not use everything?

More indicators do not automatically make a better model. The model favors a small set of distinct signals, persistence tests and cross-confirmation so one noisy release cannot move the regime by itself.

Analytical framework only — not a recession declaration, probability forecast or investment recommendation.
