Performance by Horizon
Forecastability varies across horizons. Tactical horizons show the strongest decomposition evidence.

Research Framework
Methodology
How the Forecast Alpha Research Terminal converts inflation forecasts, market benchmarks, and regime information into market-relative inflation signals.
1. Forecast Alpha Framework
Model Inflation Forecast
−
Market Benchmark
=
Raw Forecast Spread
→
Calibrated Forecast Alpha
Forecast Alpha measures the calibrated difference between model-implied inflation and market-implied inflation.
A positive value indicates that the model expects inflation above market pricing. A negative value indicates that
the model expects inflation below market pricing.
2. Regime Classification
Macro Data
→
TV-HMM
→
Regime State
→
Regime-Aware Interpretation
The regime engine classifies the current macroeconomic environment using a time-varying Hidden Markov Model.
Regime context matters because Forecast Alpha may behave differently across inflation persistence, disinflation,
shock, and neutral environments.
3. Signal Construction
Positive Forecast AlphaInflation above market pricing
Near Zero Forecast AlphaModel and market broadly aligned
Negative Forecast AlphaInflation below market pricing
Signals are evaluated across multiple horizons: 1M, 3M, 6M, and 12M. The platform considers both the selected
horizon and the cross-horizon signal structure to determine whether model-market disagreement is isolated or broad-based.
4. How to Use the Platform
- Start with the Dashboard. Review the featured signal, forecast spread, positioning guidance, and forecast drivers.
- Check the Regime tab. Confirm the active macro regime, confidence, duration, and transition outlook.
- Use the Signals tab. Evaluate signal strength, evolution, extremity, and cross-horizon structure.
- Review Track Record. Use historical evidence to judge signal reliability and calibration quality.
- Apply judgment. Treat Forecast Alpha as a research input, not an automated investment instruction.
5. Interpretation Guide
| Forecast Alpha |
Market Interpretation |
| Large Positive | Inflation may be underpriced by the market. |
| Small Positive | Mild upside inflation risk relative to market pricing. |
| Near Zero | Model and market expectations are broadly aligned. |
| Small Negative | Mild downside inflation risk relative to market pricing. |
| Large Negative | Inflation may be overpriced by the market. |
6. Important Limitations
Forecast Alpha is a measure of model-market disagreement. It is not a guarantee of future inflation outcomes,
breakeven returns, or portfolio performance. Signals should be evaluated alongside regime context, historical
reliability, portfolio objectives, liquidity conditions, and independent investment judgment.
