# Economic Calendar Fetcher ## Overview Retrieve upcoming economic events and data releases from the Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) Economic Calendar API. This skill fetches scheduled economic indicators including central bank monetary policy decisions, employment reports, inflation data (CPI/PPI), GDP releases, retail sales, manufacturing data, and other market-moving events that impact financial markets. The skill uses a Python script to query the FMP API and returns raw JSON or text output. The assistant then filters events, assesses market impact, and generates a chronological Markdown report for each scheduled event. No files are generated automatically. **Key Capabilities:** - Fetch economic events for specified date ranges (max 90 days) - Support flexible API key provision (environment variable or CLI argument) - Filter by impact level, country, or event type (filtering performed by the assistant) - Present filtered results as structured Markdown reports with impact analysis (assistant-generated, not script-generated) - Default to next 7 days for quick market outlook **Data Source:** - FMP Economic Calendar API: `https://financialmodelingprep.com/api/v3/economic_calendar` - C

Where does this skill come from?
From BaggaT236/AI-Trading-Skills, a repository with 118 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
