The Big Switcheroo is Here ๐Ÿ™€

Plus the DCDR SITREP for March 13, 2024

Good morning from Washington DC, where Spring is definitely springingโ€ฆ ๐ŸŒผ

Welcome to the SITREP for March 13, 2024

But firstโ€ฆitโ€™s here - the big switcheroo!

Hereโ€™s whatโ€™s going to happen:

  • Today will be the last of the mid-week SITREPS ๐Ÿ™€

  • Iโ€™ll still share these once a week in the newsletter but the rest of the emails will be the blog and articles, not country reports.

  • All SITREPs and updates are available in the country assessment section of the DCDR app, which you can access through the app at app.dcdr.io. This makes things fasterโ€”youโ€™ll always be looking at the most up-to-date version of the reportsโ€”and more accessible, as everything is in one place.

So far, so good. The newsletter will be more newsletter-y and the country info is still available for those who want it.

But wait, thereโ€™s moreโ€ฆ

#1 The basic app is now free.

All users start with a free trial of all features but when thatโ€™s over, the basic country info will still be available.

(And when youโ€™re on your trial, make sure to check out the chat agents and exercise builder. Thereโ€™s a whole toolkit in there, not just the country info.)

#2 Maps are coming.

Thereโ€™s going to be an interactive map you can use to quickly compare risk ratings plus, when you click on any country, youโ€™ll get the full country report. No more scrolling through a long (and growing) list of countries.

101 countries is a LOT of coverageโ€ฆ.

(Oh, and the app has had a complete makeover, plus thereโ€™s a big optimization project underway to speed it up even more.)

On to the SITREPs for today

As a reminder, SITREPs covers the comparative stability of the select countries, comparing current events over the last ~72 hours to the country's baseline stability assessment (i.e. what's 'normal'). That way, you can put events into context and determine if you need to take action โ€” or seize an opportunity โ€” in the short term.

(Note: DCDR's analysis engine generates these reports and conditions apply. See the footer for more.)

Thatโ€™s it for this week. Iโ€™ll be back on Monday with the new schedule, but Iโ€™ll be on a maintenance sprint for the rest of the week.

Donโ€™t forget: the latest, full, country reports are always available in the app โ€” app.dcdr.io โ€” plus, if you sign up now, youโ€™ll also get a weekโ€™s access to the AI chat agents and exercise planner.

Have a great rest of your week.
