Global Macro Liquidity & Fed Net Liquidity Tracker (2026)
The liquidity backdrop under every signal
The Global Macro radar follows central-bank liquidity conditions — the broad monetary backdrop that historically correlates with the appetite for risk assets across markets. Where the other Gemral Edge pillars look at individual companies, Macro looks at the tide underneath all of them, tracking the observable liquidity conditions that shape whether capital is flowing toward or away from risk in aggregate.
Why macro belongs alongside company signals
A convergence of contracts, trades and hiring on a single company says something about that company; the liquidity environment says something about how the whole market is likely to treat such signals at that moment. The same company-level evidence can land very differently depending on whether liquidity is expanding or contracting. By keeping the macro backdrop visible next to the company-level radars, the platform lets a reader weigh a specific signal against the broader conditions in which it is forming, rather than reading it in a vacuum, and the same convergence can deserve more or less attention depending on whether liquidity is expanding or draining at the time.
Reading the macro radar
The radar reports observable public liquidity conditions and their historical relationship to risk assets, presented as context and data rather than as a forecast of where markets are headed. It is deliberately a slow, structural layer: it changes over weeks and months rather than minutes, and it is not trying to call the next move, only to describe the environment. Nothing shown is a buy or sell recommendation or investment advice, and the methodology behind every measure is documented.

What components are displayed in the Macro liquidity radar?
The Macro liquidity radar displays reported balance sheet figures from the Federal Reserve, the Treasury General Account cash balance, and overnight reverse repurchase facility balances alongside historical benchmark asset series.
How are Reverse Repo (RRP) balances reported?
Overnight Reverse Repurchase Agreement balances reflect the aggregate dollar volume of cash placed overnight by money market funds and primary dealers at the Federal Reserve, as reported daily by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
