brazil_macro_actual
Returns a Brazilian macro headline actual (IPCA, IPCA-15, GDP, PIM-PF industrial production, PMC retail sales, PMS services volume, or PNAD Contínua unemployment) with full release-vintage provenance — built on a release/vintage layer that NEVER overwrites an original published number when a later revision arrives (method_id macro_actual_v1).
Use when: you need the current headline reading for a Brazilian macro
indicator, or (via `vintage`) what was known at a specific historical
instant vs. what is currently the revised/correct value.
Do not use when: you want the surprise vs. consensus (use
brazil_macro_surprise, IPCA only) or the release schedule (use
brazil_macro_calendar).
Args:
indicator: one of IPCA, IPCA15, GDP, PIM_PF, PMC, PMS, PNAD_UNEMPLOYMENT.
reference_period: e.g. "2026-07" (monthly) or "2026-Q2" (GDP).
as_of: YYYY-MM-DD, REQUIRED when vintage="as_known".
vintage: "latest" (currently-correct value, default), "first"
(original release, revision_number=0), or "as_known" (what was
known publicly at `as_of`).
