How to Read Our Risk Indicator
Understanding the factors that drive our Revaluation Risk Index and what each level means.
Understanding the Risk Index
Our Revaluation Risk Indicator synthesizes multiple economic factors into a single, easy-to-understand gauge. Here is how to interpret it.
Factor Count Interpretation
- 0-2 factors active: Few monitored factors showing elevated readings
- 3-5 factors active: Multiple monitored factors showing elevated readings
- 6-7 factors active: Multiple stress indicators present — historically associated with periods of elevated monetary policy discussion
- 8-9 factors active: Maximum factor count active — historically rare conditions that have preceded significant monetary policy changes in past cycles
Factors We Monitor
- US National Debt: Level and growth rate
- Gold Price Movements: Unusual spikes or sustained rises
- Central Bank Activity: Gold purchases and dollar reserve changes
- Geopolitical Events: Sanctions, trade wars, conflicts
- Market Volatility: VIX and bond market stress
Current Assessment
Our current reading reflects elevated concerns based on:
- Record debt levels
- Sustained central bank gold buying
- Ongoing de-dollarization efforts
We are working on adding real-time data feeds to make this indicator even more responsive. Stay tuned.
