Observed fact
The retained prices, coverage state and calculated movement are reported first, and are not revised to fit a story.
Research and sources
A price movement is measured before anyone goes looking for a reason, and a reason is never inferred from whichever headline happened to be nearby. Timing alone does not prove causation, and nothing on this site claims otherwise.
Where the research stands
Private candidate movement and source records are withheld with the numerical series. No counts, URLs or derived claims are exposed by this page.
Editorial boundary
The retained prices, coverage state and calculated movement are reported first, and are not revised to fit a story.
Primary announcements and credible reporting are tested against timing and scope before a marker is placed.
Alternative causes and contradictory reporting are retained rather than tidied away, including supporting and contradictory evidence for the same move.
Credit
Every marker names the article, its author — or states plainly that the publisher named none — and the publisher, and links to the original. No article body is quoted and no images are reproduced. If you want to know what a source said, the link takes you to the people who said it.
A replayable retail movement or coverage anomaly appears first.
Search primary announcements, credible reporting and counterevidence.
Facts, temporal association and contributory hypotheses receive different labels.
A person approves the exact record and its causal wording before a marker exists at all.
