West North Central · 3M

On 4 August 2026 we predicted West North Central house prices would be 0.81% higher by August 2026.

Our stated range was 424.893 to 438.131 — if the method works as intended, the true figure lands inside it about 95% of the time. Verdict due the first FHFA release covering August 2026, when the official figure is published. It has not been graded yet, and nothing on this page can change what was written above.

02 / WHEN THIS GETS ITS VERDICT

This forecast is graded against the FIRST figure the publisher releases for August 2026 — the number the market actually saw — and never against a later revision. That rule was fixed on 2026-08-03, before this forecast existed.

Headline grade (first_print): the earliest publisher vintage at or after the target period. Available roughly two months after the period ends, on the publisher's schedule, not ours.
Companion grade (settled_t_plus_12): the value as published twelve months after the target period, which measures how much the first figure was revised. Available roughly fourteen months after. Both definitions were committed before any grade existed under either.
INSUFFICIENT DATA
This forecast has not been graded. It cannot be: the period it names has not been published yet. When it is, the verdict appears here — pass or miss — and nothing on this page changes.

PUBLISHER VINTAGES THIS FORECAST WAS BUILT FROM

Every input the reconstruction used, with the time the publisher released it. The forward-lock check reads these back from the record and fails the run if any of them postdates the lock above — that is what makes "locked before the outcome existed" a checked statement rather than a claim.

It is not stored on the row, and it is not the commitment: the commitment is the append-only row and the lock timestamp the database assigned to it.
