Polymarket economy historical data

Polymarket's economy series cover scheduled macro events: Fed rate decisions, CPI prints, jobs numbers. Each release becomes a market whose price is a live probability, and the order book shows conviction building or collapsing as data approaches.

Marketlens captures these books in full. Because each event resolves cleanly against an official number, the archive doubles as a calibration record for market implied macro forecasts.
