{"service":"CyclePulse","version":"1.0.0","tagline":"US inventory & production cycle signal (the bullwhip gauge).","description":"US inventory & production cycle signal — the bullwhip gauge for the real economy. Returns the manufacturing-and-trade inventory-to-sales ratio and its month/year trend (total business plus retail, wholesale, and manufacturer breakdown), factory new orders for durable goods (total and ex-transportation) and core capital goods ex-aircraft (the cleanest business-investment leading indicator), the order backlog, and a plain-English cycle phase (expansion/restocking, mid-cycle, destocking/contraction risk, or bottoming). Use it to time the manufacturing cycle, anticipate industrial demand and commodity pull-through, and read restocking vs destocking — a companion to supply-chain-stress and macro data.
