FAQs

 

 

  • How is macroeconomic sentiment different from traditional economic data?

    Traditional macroeconomic indicators are inherently lagging because they measure conditions after economic activity has already occurred. Macroeconomic sentiment focuses on how economies, markets, policymakers, institutions, and local populations discuss inflation, growth, employment, policy, geopolitical risk, and broader economic conditions in real time – often before official data confirms the shift.

     

  • Which macroeconomic themes does Permutable track?

    Permutable tracks inflation expectations, economic growth sentiment, labour market conditions, central bank policy expectations, consumer demand, geopolitical developments, political instability, recession expectations, commodity-driven macro pressures, global trade disruption, and cross-market risk sentiment.

     

  • How many countries and economies does Permutable cover?

    Permutable’s macroeconomic intelligence infrastructure monitors narrative and sentiment signals across more than 50 economies globally, covering both developed and emerging markets. Coverage includes local-language narrative analysis across more than 70 languages to capture regional economic developments often missed by English-only datasets.

     

  • How does Permutable detect macro regime shifts earlier?

    Permutable continuously analyses global information flow, local narrative persistence, policy developments, and cross-market transmission behaviour in real time. By monitoring how narratives strengthen, spread, and influence multiple asset classes simultaneously, the platform helps identify regime transition signals before they fully emerge in traditional indicators or institutional consensus.

     

  • Which asset classes can benefit from macroeconomic sentiment intelligence?

    Permutable’s macro intelligence supports cross-asset workflows including FX, sovereign debt and rates markets, commodities and cross-asset macro portfolios, systematic macro strategies, and institutional risk frameworks.

     

  • Does Permutable analyse local-language information sources?

    Yes. Permutable analyses local and international narrative flow across more than 70 languages. This helps detect regional economic developments, domestic policy shifts, and local sentiment divergence before they are fully reflected in global market narratives or institutional research.

     

  • Can the data be used for quantitative research and backtesting?

    Yes. Permutable’s structured macroeconomic intelligence supports historical analysis, signal research, regime modelling, and systematic strategy development. Teams can analyse how narrative persistence, macro sentiment, and geopolitical developments historically influenced asset pricing and market behaviour.

     

  • Who typically uses Permutable’s macroeconomic intelligence?

    Permutable is designed for institutional users including hedge funds, systematic macro funds, FX trading desks, commodity trading firms, proprietary trading firms, multi-asset investment teams, institutional research teams, and macro portfolio managers.
