## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fast, keyword-filtered Fed policy and inflation news specifically sourced from MarketWatch RSS, as opposed to raw full-text scraping or broader market news. Ideal for agents building macro briefings, monitoring monetary policy shifts, or reacting to FOMC announcements in near real-time. Prefer over sibling endpoints like the general MarketWatch top stories feed when the user's focus is specifically on the Fed or inflation.

## Known failure modes

- No recent articles matching inflation/Fed keywords, returning an empty list
