Quarterly real GDP growth is not annualized. Two negative consecutive quarters meet a common technical rule of thumb, but this is not an official recession declaration. Inflation is year-over-year price growth; unemployment measures labor-market conditions. National coverage, revisions and reporting lags differ.
No validated probability model has been integrated for this economy. The US model and Sahm-rule threshold are not transferred to other countries. The absence of a model is not a zero-percent risk estimate.
Automated sources are checked on opening and every five minutes while visible. Failed requests use dated saved observations. Canada and Australia inflation currently use two reviewed official release observations and require a reviewed update; their history is deliberately limited. Older observations are marked visibly. Values can be revised.
