State of the Macro Q4 26

Working quarterly for October–December. Started 22 October, after the Q3 lock. No A–G yet.

Draft — not a lock — not a buy list

What this file is

Q3 is locked. This draft starts empty of A–G. The first fold happens after the October monthly, and it will cite that month’s P-* grades. It will not copy-edit September or the Q3 essay.

Watching

These IDs were written on the September lock. October grades them. This draft does not.
