Archive & scorecard

Every weekly forecast, graded against the following Thursday's Freddie Mac PMMS 30-year average.

1 live grade so far: 0 HIT, 0 CLOSE, 1 MISS.

We publish hit rate and average error only after 4 live grades. Our first live forecast (week of Oct 26) missed by 82 bps because it was built on a stale, incorrect baseline; we fixed the data pipeline and kept the miss on the record.
