Japan official readings in one call plus an independent cross-agency check: JMA seismic intensity (shindo), RSMC Tokyo typhoon analysis, Ministry of Finance JGB yields across seven tenors, and the Japan rows of BIS and FRED. The same earthquakes appear as JMA measured them and as USGS measured them, side by side - different agencies, different quantities, and we adjudicate nothing. Descriptive only, never a forecast or advice. No data -> 422 no_charge, not billed. Also searched as: japan macro bundle; japan market risk pack; japan multi leg reading.
