Interpretation & scoring
Direction: Context: very volatile; matters mostly through utility and industrial costs.
Stress metric: YoY % change (higher = more stress).
Mapping: indicator-specific thresholds (piecewise linear). Metric values -30.00 → 20.00 → 50.00 → 100.00 → 200.00 map to stress 0 → 50 (Watch) → 75 (Elevated) → 90 (Severe) → 100.
Natural gas is far more volatile than oil; anchors are correspondingly wider.
