Global Macro Agent

An end-to-end AI agent for discretionary global macro.

One agent runs the entire loop: it reads the evidence, debates every view across model families, simulates how different market participants will react — and writes the book.

Use cases

What the agent can do for you.

01 / THEMATICS

Analyze the current macro thematics

What is actually driving markets right now — assembled from the evidence and the causal graph, not limited to headlines.

02 / IDEAS & PROMPTS

Ideas and prompts for traders and policymakers

Helps traders surface what the market may have wrong — potential mispricings, and the overlooked lines of reasoning behind them. For policymakers it works as a think tank: the same evidence base and simulation, pointed at a policy question.

03 / DEEP RETRIEVAL

Reason over massive financial data

Ask across the whole evidence base at once — filings, flows, positioning, macro vintages — and get an answer with its reasoning and citations shown.

04 / REACTION REHEARSAL

Rehearse the market's reaction

Simulates the different market participants in each market — and the transmission mechanics between them — to preview how an event propagates before it trades.

Why an agent

Three things no human desk can do.

COVERAGE

It reads more than a human can

A vast body of official macro data and private indicators, read continuously, to one standard — every reading sourced and filed into one ledger. Human coverage has to choose; the agent does not.

SIMULATION

It simulates the market, not just the economy

An independent agent takes the seat of every market participant — reasoning from that participant's own objectives, its constraints and the mechanics of how it trades — and rehearses the market's reaction before any position exists.

HONESTY

It is an honest narrator of its own mind

Humans — and single AI models — are unreliable narrators of their own assumptions and beliefs; the answers come out distorted. The agent's discipline is structural: every thought is recorded, every claim names what it rests on, and a second model family is tasked with attacking the conclusion.

The engine

Model highlights.

1 / 3

Form the market consensus

It first reconstructs what the market believes — the consensus narrative, what is already priced, and who is positioned where.

2 / 3

Derive independently from data and facts

Then it derives its own view from primary data and facts alone — vintage-correct evidence, code-computed measurements — deliberately apart from the consensus it just mapped.

3 / 3

Predict market dynamics through multi-agent simulation

Finally it simulates the different market participants and the transmission between them, to predict how the market digests the gap between consensus and evidence.

Coverage

It reads the market, comprehensively.

The method is breadth without selection: a vast body of official macro data and private indicators, read continuously to one standard — every reading sourced, time-stamped, and filed into a single evidence ledger. A human desk has to choose what to read; the agent does not.

The model

It comprehends the data beyond correlation — it reasons.

The engine follows how information transmits across families of evidence, and it keeps facts strictly apart from assumptions. The analysis is driven by the relationships between the data, not the data itself — several coherent worlds held at once, weighted and retired by evidence.

Simulation

An agent in every seat of the market.

Each market is argued by independent agents, one standing in the seat of each participant class — reasoning from that participant’s own objectives, its constraints, and the mechanics of how it participates — to simulate what it does next. A central adjudicator then weighs the long and short forces, and their weight in the market, into a single ruling on who sets the price.

Honesty

Built so it cannot fool itself.

Every statement lives in a three-part ledger — fact, inference, assumption — and a fact must carry its source. Claims declare what they rest on, so when an upstream fact is overturned, the contamination is computed and everything built on it is revoked, in cascade. Tensions close only by ruling; “I don’t know” is a legal answer.

Process

A conclusion has to survive the argument.

Every round compresses a vast body of analysis, layer by layer, into a handful of conclusions — and every conclusion must meet the market that follows: each states, in advance, what would prove it wrong, and the forward market does the grading.

01

Evidence — the widest layer

The full breadth of data and indicators becomes a ledger of claims — every one a sourced fact, or an inference that names what it rests on. Facts and assumptions never mix.

02

The debate — the first compression

Bull argues bear across separately trained model families, and every simulated participant states what it would do from its own seat. Claims that cannot survive the argument die here.

03

Adjudication — the second compression

The central adjudicator weighs the long and short forces, and their weight in the market, into one ruling per market. A contested ruling shrinks the size it is allowed to carry.

04

The book — and its falsifiers

What remains is a handful of volatility-budgeted positions, each shipped with the condition that would prove it wrong. The forward market does the grading — no falsifier, no trade.

Philosophy

Built on the thinking of the great macro funds.

The agent’s reasoning distils the philosophy of the investors who defined global macro — Soros’s reflexivity, Bridgewater’s radical truth-seeking. A market view acts on the world, and the changed world feeds back into the view; the discipline is to reason inside that loop without fooling itself.

Limits

What this is not.

The same ledger that records the agent’s views records its boundaries.

No backtests — only the record
The models have read history, so a historical replay can never prove foresight — it may simply remember. The only honest test is the forward record: every view filed in advance, paper-traded, and marked daily.
Not everything is observable
For all the breadth of coverage, parts of the market never print — private positioning, undisclosed flows, intentions. The ledger marks them unknown rather than filling the silence with a guess.
One participant among many
The agent is itself only one participant in the market it models, and its simulation of the others is bounded in scale and resolution. It rehearses the market; it does not contain it.

run 31598 · 2026-09-05

Analyze the current macro thematics.

It starts with what the market believes: the narratives moving markets right now, each held as a competing hypothesis and scored for strength and crowding — none forced to converge; the data retires them.

NARRATIVE · STRENGTH HIGH · CROWDING 0.7

Fiscal supply and the vanishing official bid.

Treasury issuance, the federal interest burden, and the changing composition of the marginal buyer of US duration.

NARRATIVE · STRENGTH HIGH · CROWDING 0.7

US–Iran energy shock repricing inflation risk.

Geopolitical energy-supply risk as a transmission channel into headline inflation and bond yields.

NARRATIVE · STRENGTH MED · CROWDING 0.5

Sticky inflation forces a hiking mini-cycle.

Sticky services inflation and re-accelerating price gauges pressing against the FOMC’s policy-rate path.

NARRATIVE · STRENGTH MED · CROWDING 0.5

Dovish dissent caps the hiking cycle.

Internal FOMC dispersion and labour-market cooling read as constraints on how far the rate path can rise.

Adversarial cross-examination

Ideas and prompts for traders and policymakers.

The agent cross-examines its own causal graph against the market’s narratives, tension by tension. What survives is a short list of potential mispricings and overlooked lines of reasoning — each with a diagnosed cause and a written catalyst.

MISPRICED

Funding-spike risk is underpriced.

The strip prices contained rates vol and no funding-risk premium while reserves drain with the RRP buffer exhausted and the ample-reserves floor unquantified. Diagnosed cause: attention scarcity — no market narrative carries the mechanism at all. The written catalyst: a quarter-end or tax-date SOFR print materially above IORB with standing-repo usage jumping.

VS CONSENSUS

No absorption failure.

Despite record debt, the widest monthly deficit on record and foreign custody down to $2.60tn, duration keeps clearing — the custody decline is a composition shift in the buyer base, not a shrinking total bid. The crowded absorption-failure trade is the error; the true fragility sits elsewhere.

VS CONSENSUS

Dovish dissent does not cap the path.

The committee delivers the hike and holds a restrictive stance while the chair–committee circuit holds; the view that internal dissent restrains the path fails, and the twelve-month priced change stays hike-side.

VS CONSENSUS

A real-yield event, not an inflation event.

Even with WTI above $90 and gasoline above $4, market-based inflation compensation stays anchored — positioning for an oil-driven breakeven blowout loses while the fiscal and supply channel keeps carrying the sell-off.

the written single point of failure: all three views transmit through one reaction function — the FOMC under its current chairmanship; a change in that chain unwinds all three at once · falsifiers on file: a durable 10-year below 4.25% with no fiscal event and no runoff halt kills the supply view; delivered hikes kill the policy view

every tension between the agent’s graph and the market’s is closed by a written ruling — it audits itself as hard as it audits the market, and files every correction the same round.

the epistemic ledger

Reason over massive financial data.

A few lines from this round’s ledger, essentially as filed: every claim is a sourced fact or an inference that names what it rests on — and where the evidence ends, the ledger says so explicitly.

FUNDAMENTAL · MONEY

The bid changed composition, not size.

Foreign official custody at the Fed fell to $2.60tn while total foreign-held federal debt rose to a record $9.27tn — private buyers, via UK and Cayman conduits, absorbed the increase, while MOF weekly data show Japanese repatriation at the margin.

FUNDAMENTAL · INFLATION

A record shelter index is uninformative.

Shelter CPI lags market rents by 12–18 months, so the near-term core contribution is governed by the pipeline of past rent growth and the current shelter rate — not by the index sitting at a five-year high, which is trivially true of any component with positive cumulative inflation.

FUNDAMENTAL · FISCAL

Who actually cleared the long bonds.

Dealer take-up was 1.85% on the 30-year and 6.84% on the 10-year, against 25–33% on twos and bills: end-investors cleared the long end while dealers backstopped the front. Absorption measured auction by auction, not narrated.

and a claim can be a refusal: where no published figure exists yet, the ledger writes “unknown” — never a plausible-sounding guess.

The long arc · slow variables near their turning conditions

Fiscal dominance
Debt-service arithmetic — not growth — now decides whether the fiscal position improves. Flips if a productivity regime restores r < g.
Rules in suspension
Since 2020 the exceptions decide and the rules adapt to them. Flips if a funding scare makes rule-compliance the price of market access.
The plumbing default
Market structure assumes an ample balance sheet; that default is now openly questioned. Flips if a stress episode is weathered without purchases.
Labour scarcity
Breakeven employment growth is falling as the population ages. Flips if AI displacement shows up in relative wages at macro scale.

Multi-agent simulation

Rehearse the market’s reaction.

Every market is argued by the simulated participant classes — each files a stance, a size and its reason. A sample of this round’s filings, then the desk that decides who actually sets the price:

US TREASURIES · DURATION

Liability-driven real moneyPENSIONS & INSURERS
BUY
large
The defining trade: 4.77% on the 10-year raises discount rates, improves funded status, and trips glidepath triggers that mandate rotating into liability-hedging assets.
Official sectorRESERVE MANAGERS
SELL
mid
Already the documented shrinking cohort of the bid — custody at $2.60tn. With the dollar firm, FX-defence needs force continued coupon sales regardless of view.
Macro and hedge fundsDISCRETIONARY FAST MONEY
SELL
mid
Restrictive FOMC while real yields and term premium carry the sell-off — kept mid-sized because a reserve-scarcity event could force a violent reversal.

US DOLLAR · CURRENCY

Trend and systematicCTAs & CARRY MODELS
BUY
mid
Hike-side path (+54bp), wide carry (JPY +278bp) and a firm broad dollar point every trend and carry rule the same way: long.
Official sectorCENTRAL BANKS
SELL
mid
Structurally long dollars — but the active flow is dollar-selling: intervention to defend home currencies is exactly what the custody drawdown funds.

US EQUITIES · INDEX

Corporate sectorBUYBACK DESKS
BUY
large
The buyback cohort is in the open window, executing above last year’s pace — a board-authorised bid that does not trade the rate debate.
Liability-driven real moneyPENSIONS & INSURERS
SELL
mid
Not a bearish view: funded-status improvement triggers glidepath de-risking, and calm markets make the exit cheap — equities fund the duration purchase.

GOLD

Official sectorCENTRAL BANKS & RESERVES
BUY
mid
Diversification out of Treasuries into gold mirrors the custody drawdown — the central-bank-independence and fiscal slow variables strengthen the motive.
Corporate sectorPRODUCERS & HEDGERS
SELL
mid
Producers sell forward into strength — the commercial short, at −264,718 contracts, is the deepest of the recent window, and mechanical.

The adjudication desk · hard evidence only — positioning motion, event digestion, forced flows; majority opinion never sets the price, the marginal moving participant does

US Treasuries
Sell dominant — clear. Event digestion is the top-authority row, +0.38 to the sellers: adverse events were followed by sustained selling; flow did not clear. Reversal written: 7–10y momentum turning positive flips the stance.
US Dollar
Buy — one-sided vote. Four classes buy against the official sector’s intervention selling; with no independent dominance evidence the desk adds no tilt — the size, not the view, is restrained.
US Equities
Buy — one-sided vote. Passive contributions, vol-target buying and the corporate bid align, with no readable evidence against; no dominance evidence, no tilt.
Gold
Sell — contested. The sell camp is the only one observably moving size — motion 0.85 across thirteen readable proxies — against the official sector’s double weight. A contested ruling caps the book at a small lean, not a position.
Crude Oil
Sell — with a penalty. The vote is one-sided but the readable evidence runs against it (trend fully the buyers’ way), so the desk pulls the traded score halfway to zero.

The recommended book · run 31598

What the agent recommends now.

Five markets. Each direction is a settled argument — the reasoning ships with the position.

US TreasuriesDURATION · 7–10Y
SHORT
−12.1%
Event digestion carries the ruling: adverse events were followed by selling, and the sell camp holds the top-authority evidence. The reversal condition is written — momentum turning positive on the 7–10y flips the stance.
US DollarCURRENCY · USD INDEX
LONG
+11.2%
A one-sided vote: dealers, trend systems, macro funds and corporate hedgers all on the buy side. Conviction is capped low — so the size, not the view, is restrained.
US EquitiesINDEX · LARGE CAP
LONG
+4.7%
Passive inflows, trend and the corporate bid vote together with no readable evidence against — a price-insensitive bid into deep liquidity and light issuance.
GoldPRECIOUS · SPOT PROXY
SHORT · LEAN
−1.5%
Contested ruling: the sell camp is the only one observably moving size across thirteen readable positioning proxies, while the official sector keeps buying. A lean, not a position.
Crude OilCOMMODITY · WTI PROXY
SHORT · LEAN
−0.6%
Only trend systems vote buy, and the readable evidence runs against them — a small fade with no hypothesis attached.
