Date and source
Every visible financial figure must show its date, provenance, or an explicit missing-data state.
BLS Prime · Methodology
Trust begins where the data ends.
Every reading separates observed facts, assumptions, calculations, and judgment. When evidence is insufficient, the result must say so.
Visible assumptions
Ranges and scenarios preserve the assumptions that produce them so another person can challenge or reproduce the result.
Honest uncertainty
An incomplete reading does not become a precise figure. It shows what is missing and why it matters.
No advice
BLS Prime organizes research. It does not execute trades or replace the user's independent judgment.
One thesis, two explanations
Your private thesis preserves a main explanation and an alternative. Each link connects sources, uncertainties and a check that could change the interpretation.
Revise without erasing
Scenarios branch from an identified revision. History retains sources and reasons; technical fixes and new readings do not establish economic novelty or alpha.
