Experimental — GDELT

Early-warning signal, independent of the main risk score: what is happening in every country where a watchlist supplier is based, read from GDELT's event files across 65+ languages of news, with the tone of the coverage each event got. Every card says how old its reading is. A sharp negative shift here can show up days before it reaches a supplier's stock price or a named headline in the main dashboard.

What is this?

A smoke detector for the countries your suppliers are based in. GDELT reads global news (thousands of outlets, 65+ languages) and records what happened where: protests, sanctions, coercion, armed clashes. Each card counts the events located in that country over the last day and averages the tone of the coverage they got. It doesn't know anything about supply chains — it measures what the news is reporting and how. A sudden dip is worth a look; it says nothing on its own about whether a specific supplier is actually affected. Headlines are listed only where the coverage actually touches your supply chain — a supplier by name, its industry, or events like export controls, port disruption or a walkout. Most countries most days will show a tone reading and no headlines, which is the honest answer.

How to read the numbers

  • 0+Neutral to positive coverage — nothing to flag.
  • -5..0Mildly negative — normal background noise for most countries.
  • <-5Clearly negative — check whether any relevant headlines came with it.
  • "Articles" is how much the world is talking about that country right now — a busy news cycle, not a risk level by itself.
