One honest number for the health of the market.
The Market Health Score reads the US stock market and the economy behind it, then boils it down to a single number from 0 to 100. No jargon, no black box. Just a calm daily read on whether the market is healthy, mixed, or under stress.
What it measures, and what it does not.
A number is only useful if you know exactly what it is reading.
What it reads
- The US large cap stock market, the S&P 500
- The trend, the fear level, and how broad the strength is
- The US economy: credit, jobs, and money in the system
- Live public data, updated every day
What it does not read
- Crypto and Bitcoin
- Small cap or penny stocks
- International or single country markets
- Any one stock you happen to own
The six signals, in plain English.
Each one answers a simple question. Together they give the full picture. The readings below are live.
How six signals become one number.
Each signal is scored on the same scale and weighted by how much it really tells us about market health. We add them into a single reading from 0 to 100, then translate it into a color you can read at a glance: green and healthy is 70 to 100, yellow and mixed is 40 to 69, red and under stress is 0 to 39.
Green does not mean buy and red does not mean sell. It means know the weather before you make a move. A healthy market is the calm stretch where staying invested quietly does the heavy lifting. A market under stress is the moment to hold the line and not panic.
Every value is real. The signals are pulled from public sources like the Federal Reserve and live market feeds. When a source is briefly down we say so rather than invent a number. Honest beats confident.
Why one honest number beats the headlines.
The news sells fear because fear keeps you watching. Every red day becomes a crisis and every green day becomes a party. For someone trying to retire on a steady plan, that noise is the enemy. It pushes people to sell at the bottom and buy at the top, the exact opposite of what works.
One honest number does the opposite. It replaces a hundred screaming headlines with a single calm read you can check in five seconds and then get on with your day. The goal is not to make you trade more. It is to help you panic less and stay invested.
