Finance
Finance is a data page on the Global Intelligence desk of Glassbox Auditing. Stock exchanges, central banks, financial centers and Gulf investment on a map, with world index prices and trading hours, the Treasury yield curve, the OFR Financial Stress Index, policy rates, crypto and Reddit chatter. Money moves between these centers within hours, so a market drop or rate change in one tends to reach U.S. prices and borrowing costs.

What does this page lead to?
- Live Now (Markets): Overnight moves in Asian and European indexes tend to set the tone for SPY's open, since global funds trade the same companies and risks across time zones. (moves the same way; same day; global scale) Source: Yahoo Finance prices.
- Credit & Housing (Macro): Mortgage rates are priced off the 10-year Treasury yield on the curve here, so a rise in long yields tends to lift mortgage rates within days and weigh on home sales later. (moves the same way; days to weeks; economy scale) Source: FRED (Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis).
- Fear Gauge (VIX) (Briefing): The OFR Financial Stress Index is built partly from stock volatility and credit spreads, so it tends to rise with the VIX when markets are under strain. (moves the same way; same day; economy scale) Source: Cboe VIX index data (daily history and delayed quotes).
- Debt & Interest (Macro): Higher Treasury yields raise what the government pays as it rolls over maturing debt, which shows up in its interest outlays over the following months and years. (moves the same way; months; economy scale) Source: U.S. Treasury, Monthly Treasury Statement.
- Retail vs Institutions (Markets): Stocks surging in Reddit mentions tend to draw retail orders, which show as a larger retail share of their off-exchange trades on those days. (moves the same way; same day; company scale) Source: Retail and institutional order flow estimated by the terminal (the subpenny method of Boehmer, Jones, Zhang and Zhang, 2021).
- Stock by Stock (Markets): Bitcoin's price feeds into crypto-exposed stocks: Coinbase's fees rise with crypto trading and Strategy holds bitcoin on its balance sheet, so both tend to move with it the same day. (moves the same way; same day; company scale) Source: Yahoo Finance prices.
- Central Banks (World Powers): A policy rate change abroad moves that currency against the dollar and, through it, the dollar value of U.S. companies' sales in that country. (either way, depending on the cause; same day; global scale) Source: FRED (Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis).
- Crypto (Markets): Spot bitcoin funds add bitcoin when shareholders put money in and shed it when they take money out; the funds' trading on Finance is an early read on that demand, which sits behind the daily prices on Crypto. (moves the same way; same day; sector scale) Source: FRED (Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis).
What feeds this page?
- Fear Gauge (VIX) (Briefing): When the VIX spikes, investors tend to pull money from riskier markets abroad at the same time, so world stock markets usually fall together and the dollar tends to firm. (moves the other way; same day; global scale) Source: Cboe VIX index data (daily history and delayed quotes).
- Crypto (Markets): The bitcoin and ether price history here is the long view behind the live coin, stablecoin and bitcoin fund snapshot on Global Intelligence, Finance. (moves the same way; same day; global scale) Source: FRED (Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis).
