macroeconomics
Fetch macroeconomic indicators by country, including GDP, CPI, inflation, and trade. Adjust date range, frequency, and apply moving averages or trailing sums.
Instructions
Macroeconomic indicators by country (GDP, CPI, inflation rate, trade balance, imports, exports, investment, consumption, business/consumer confidence, house prices, rent prices, exchange rates, money supply). Requires countries='United States' — use comma-separated values for multiple countries. Do NOT use tickers= for this tool. Supports start_date/end_date and quarterly=true. Supports rolling=N (moving-average smoothing) and trailing=N (trailing N-period sum, e.g. a trailing-4-quarter sum) on the raw series.
Available indicators: get_business_confidence_index, get_composite_leading_indicator, get_consumer_confidence_index, get_consumer_price_index, get_current_account_balance, get_current_account_balance_to_gdp_ratio, get_exchange_rates, get_exports, get_exports_to_gdp_ratio, get_fixed_investment, get_fixed_investment_to_gdp_ratio, get_gross_domestic_product, get_gross_domestic_product_deflator, get_house_prices, get_imports, get_imports_to_gdp_ratio, get_inflation_rate, get_investment, get_investment_to_gdp_ratio, get_money_supply, get_rent_prices, get_share_prices, get_total_consumption, get_total_consumption_to_gdp_ratio.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| lag | No | Number of periods to lag when computing growth rates. | |
| growth | No | Return period-over-period growth rates instead of absolute values. | |
| period | No | Observation frequency, e.g. 'monthly', 'quarterly', or 'annual'. | |
| measure | No | Sub-measure selector, e.g. 'M1', 'M2', or 'M3' for money supply. | |
| rolling | No | Rolling window size in number of periods. When set, the metric is computed over a smoothly overlapping trailing window across the full history (e.g. period='monthly' and rolling=6 gives a rolling 6-month value) instead of one value per period, or (for economics indicators) a simple moving average used to smooth the raw series. | |
| end_date | No | End of the date range in YYYY-MM-DD format. | 2026-07-14 |
| trailing | No | Trailing window size in number of periods. Sums the raw values over the trailing N periods (e.g. trailing=4 on quarterly data gives a trailing-4-quarter / TTM-style sum) instead of returning one value per period. | |
| countries | No | Comma-separated country names, e.g. 'United States,Germany,Japan'. | |
| indicator | Yes | Name of the specific metric to calculate, e.g. 'get_asset_turnover_ratio'. Required — omitting it returns the list of available indicators. | |
| quarterly | No | Return quarterly data instead of annual when True. | |
| start_date | No | Start of the date range in YYYY-MM-DD format. | 2021-07-15 |
| gmdb_source | No | Use the OECD Global Macro Data Bank as the data source when True. | |
| standardize | No | Return the Z-Score (standard score) instead of the raw values, i.e. how many standard deviations each value is from the mean of its own series. When combined with growth=True, the growth values are standardized instead of the raw values. | |
| show_columns | No | Comma-separated names to filter the output. For historical data use the key names visible in any response record (e.g. 'Close,Volume,Return'). For financial statements use the 'metric' field values from the response (e.g. 'Revenue,Net Income,EBITDA'). Call the tool once without this parameter to see all available names, then repeat with show_columns to reduce response size and token usage. | |
| inflation_adjusted | No | Adjust nominal values for inflation when True. |
