THE PROBLEM

Most investors only see warning signs in hindsight. By the time news reports market stress, portfolios have already taken significant losses. Economic dislocations don't appear overnight—they build over time in data that's available to anyone willing to monitor it systematically.

2008
Financial Crisis
S&P 500: -37%
2020
COVID Crash
S&P 500: -34%
2022
Bear Market
S&P 500: -18%

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can FLASHPOINT predict the next crash?

+

No. FLASHPOINT does not make predictions or forecasts. We monitor economic stress indicators that have historically shown elevated readings before major market events. However, elevated readings do not guarantee future outcomes, and many periods of elevated indicators do not result in crashes. We provide data and historical context—you interpret the signals and make your own decisions.

Is this investment advice?

+

No. FLASHPOINT provides economic data and analysis tools for informational purposes only. This is not financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy or sell securities. We do not know your financial situation, risk tolerance, or investment goals. All investment decisions are yours to make, ideally in consultation with a qualified financial advisor.

How accurate are the indicators?

+

We do not make accuracy claims or performance guarantees. Economic indicators are metrics that measure various aspects of economic health—they are not predictive tools. Historically, certain combinations of indicators have shown elevated readings before major market events, but this does not establish a reliable predictive pattern. Timing, severity, and outcomes vary significantly. Use FLASHPOINT as one input among many in your research process.

What indicators do you track?

+

FLASHPOINT monitors 50+ indicators across multiple categories: yield curves (Treasury spreads, inversions), credit markets (corporate spreads, high-yield stress), market volatility (VIX, realized vol), liquidity conditions (repo markets, bid-ask spreads), sovereign debt metrics, central bank policy indicators, banking system health, corporate leverage, currency markets, asset valuations, economic activity (PMI, employment), and inflation signals. Full indicator documentation is available to subscribers.

How often is data updated?

+

Update frequency varies by plan and indicator. OBSERVER: Daily dashboard updates with end-of-day data. ANALYST: Real-time updates for market-traded indicators (yields, spreads, volatility), daily updates for economic releases. COMMAND: Priority data processing with the fastest available updates. Some indicators (like GDP or employment reports) only update monthly or quarterly based on official release schedules.

Can I cancel anytime?

+

Yes. All plans are month-to-month subscriptions with no long-term contracts. Cancel anytime from your account settings. Your access continues through the end of your current billing period. We offer a 14-day free trial on all plans—no credit card required for trial signup. If you cancel during the trial period, you will not be charged.

How does the gauge component work?

+

Our signature octagonal alert gauge is an industrial-style risk visualization component that displays economic stress levels from 0-100. Built with precision SVG graphics, the gauge uses a 180-degree arc divided into three zones: STABLE (0-33), ELEVATED (34-66), and CRITICAL (67-100). The gauge features smooth animations, a digital readout, and can be embedded in dashboards or used as a standalone component. It's available as both a React component and vanilla HTML/JavaScript implementation.
