1# FRED mappings — connector `fred`. All series verified on 2026-09-11 via /fred/series (docs/sources-research.md §6).2# One spec = one series = one country (default USA). `frequency` follows the series (weekly → monthly mean via3# frequency=m&aggregation_method=avg, done automatically by the connector). Special transforms handled in code:4# `yoy_pct` (year-on-year % change) and `rebase:2015` (re-index so 2015 mean = 100).5sources:6# --- money & rates ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------7- {indicator: policy-rate, dataset: FRED, code: FEDFUNDS, countries: [USA], frequency: M, priority: 2,8   notes: "Federal funds effective rate, monthly average (BIS WS_CBPOL = priority 1, end-of-period target midpoint)."}9- {indicator: mortgage-rate, dataset: FRED, code: MORTGAGE30US, countries: [USA], frequency: M, priority: 1,10   notes: "Freddie Mac 30-year fixed mortgage average; weekly series aggregated to monthly mean by FRED."}11# --- housing ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------12- {indicator: housing-starts, dataset: FRED, code: HOUST, countries: [USA], frequency: M, priority: 1,13   notes: "New privately-owned housing units started, thousands of units, seasonally adjusted annual rate."}14- {indicator: building-permits, dataset: FRED, code: PERMIT, countries: [USA], frequency: M, priority: 1,15   notes: "New privately-owned housing units authorized by building permits, thousands, SAAR."}16- {indicator: homeownership-rate, dataset: FRED, code: RHORUSQ156N, countries: [USA], frequency: Q, priority: 1,17   notes: "Homeownership rate in the United States (Census HVS), quarterly, not seasonally adjusted."}18# --- income: MEHOINUSA672N dropped (unit mismatch: 2024 C-CPI-U dollars vs registry euro PPS) -----------------19# --- economy / labour ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------20- {indicator: industrial-production-index, dataset: FRED, code: INDPRO, countries: [USA], frequency: M, priority: 2,21   transform: "rebase:2015", notes: "Industrial Production: Total Index (2017=100, SA) re-based to 2015=100."}22- {indicator: unemployment-rate, dataset: FRED, code: UNRATE, countries: [USA], frequency: M, priority: 3,23   notes: "Civilian unemployment rate, monthly, SA (monthly granularity behind the WB/IMF annual series)."}24- {indicator: inflation, dataset: FRED, code: CPIAUCSL, countries: [USA], frequency: M, priority: 3, transform: "yoy_pct",25   notes: "CPI-U all items (1982-84=100, SA) → year-on-year % change computed in normalize."}26- {indicator: labor-force-participation-rate, dataset: FRED, code: CIVPART, countries: [USA], frequency: M, priority: 3,27   notes: "Civilian labor force participation rate, 16+, monthly, SA."}28- {indicator: government-debt-pct-gdp, dataset: FRED, code: GFDEGDQ188S, countries: [USA], frequency: Q, priority: 2,29   notes: "Federal debt: total public debt as % of GDP, quarterly, SA."}30# --- BIS real residential property prices republished by FRED (2010=100 → re-based to 2015=100) — priority 3 behind31#     BIS (1) and OECD (2).
