World Intelligence
World Bank macro data (GDP growth, inflation, unemployment) and GDACS active disaster alerts in one view. No API keys required.
Why Global Context Matters
Global macro shapes every portfolio
GDP growth rates, inflation trajectories, and unemployment trends across major economies affect interest rate expectations, currency movements, and sector rotations worldwide. Knowing the macro landscape of the countries your holdings operate in gives you context that single-market data cannot.
Disasters move markets
Supply chain disruptions, energy shocks, and humanitarian crises triggered by floods, cyclones, and earthquakes can affect commodity prices, shipping routes, and regional revenues within days. GDACS Orange and Red alerts give you an early signal before it shows up in earnings.
No API key required
World Bank Open Data and GDACS are fully public sources. Unlike most market data, you can use this command with zero configuration — no account, no key, no rate limits. World Bank figures are annual (most recent available); GDACS alerts are near-real-time.
