## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability the-stall-macro-indicators-fc60ab25
```

Example prompt: What are the current macroeconomic indicators — things like GDP growth, inflation, and interest rates — for the US right now?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, no-account-required access to macroeconomic indicator data and are comfortable paying $0.008 USDC per call via x402 on Base mainnet. Ideal for AI agents that need on-demand macro data without API key management overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — returns HTTP 402
- Invalid or unsupported indicator or region parameter — returns error or empty result
- Data unavailable for requested time period — returns empty or partial dataset
- Network timeout on Base mainnet payment processing — request fails

## How this service works

Returns current US macroeconomic indicators: Fed Funds Rate, CPI (with year-over-year inflation %), Unemployment Rate, and Real GDP. Sourced from FRED (St. Louis Federal Reserve), updated monthly. One call establishes the policy and economic backdrop for any risk-pricing or multi-asset workflow. Pair with market-overview for the full macro picture.

## Output

A structured dataset of macroeconomic indicators including values such as GDP growth rate, inflation rate, unemployment rate, central bank interest rates, and other key economic metrics, paid for via a $0.008 USDC micropayment on Base mainnet with no API key required.
