## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability cross-asset-market-snapshot-060bec94
```

Example prompt: Give me a quick cross-asset market snapshot — S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow, VIX, dollar index, 2-year and 10-year yields, WTI and Brent oil, EUR/USD and USD/JPY — with how each has moved over the past day, week, and month.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a broad, multi-asset daily close snapshot covering equities, volatility, rates, commodities, and FX in a single call. It is ideal for morning briefings, macro dashboards, or any workflow that needs quick situational awareness across asset classes without calling multiple specialized data APIs. Not suitable for intraday tick data, options chains, individual stock prices, or historical time series beyond the three change windows.

## Known failure modes

- Market data may reflect the prior business day's close if markets are closed or data feed is delayed
- Endpoint may be temporarily unavailable if the Render-hosted service is cold-starting
- Missing or stale data for individual instruments if upstream data source is delayed
- No intraday prices — only daily closing values are returned
