About

Gist 7 is an analysis blog dedicated to macroeconomics. We follow the chain from central bank decisions, economic data, and the social trends people are talking about to their effect on interest rates, currencies, commodities, stocks and crypto.

Seven pillars

The 7 in our name stands for the seven lenses we use to read the economy.

  • Rates & Central Banks: decisions by the Fed, the Bank of Korea, the Bank of Japan and the ECB, Treasury yields and the yield curve
  • Growth & Inflation: GDP, CPI, PCE, jobs and PMI data, plus fiscal and tariff policy
  • Currencies & the Dollar: the dollar index and the won, yen, yuan and euro
  • Commodities: oil, gold, silver, copper and grains
  • Stock Markets: indexes, sectors and corporate earnings
  • Bitcoin & Crypto: how liquidity, rates and regulation shape digital assets
  • Trends & the Economy: the economic reality behind viral trends and social shifts

What every article includes

  • Market impact map: which way the news may push Treasury yields, the dollar, gold, oil, bitcoin, US stocks, the KOSPI and more, and why
  • Everyday impact: what it means for loan and deposit rates, prices and currency exchange
  • What to watch next: the upcoming releases that will confirm or challenge the trend
  • Sources and dates: official data first, and every figure shows when it applies

How we work

  • We check official data and original releases from central banks and statistics agencies first.
  • We keep facts separate from interpretation.
  • When an error is confirmed, we fix it promptly and show a "Last updated" date.
  • Articles are written with the help of AI tools. A separate verification step checks every figure, date and quote against its source, and only articles that pass a quality review are published.

Our full standards are in our Editorial Principles.
