How it is read

What it measures
demand for the debt
Where it sits
2.67 against fixed thresholds (2.45/2.25). higher than ~73% of its last decade: at the 73th percentile of its last decade.
z vs. its window
0.39 (strain side: down). 890 observations in the window.
State rule
Scored against absolute thresholds: >2.45 calm, 2.25-2.45 watch, <2.25 extreme. Because the reference window is poisoned by the 2020-23 spikes, the z-score is shown for context but does not gate the state.
Confidence
ROBUST : a primary official series, mechanically reported.
Reliability (DRS)
DRS 95: Bid-to-cover of completed Note and Bond auctions, averaged per auction date. Announced-but-unheld auctions are excluded.
