  1. AR-CI-2026-01Version 1.0

    Domain readout / United States

    Latest market-structure signals moved in both directions.

  2. AR-CI-2026-02Version 1.0

    Focused note / United States

    Four digital usage systems traced four different structural paths.

    Browser, mobile operating-system, search-engine, and social-referral shares are read side by side without turning them into one platform-power score.

  3. AR-CI-2026-03Version 1.0

    Domain readout / United States

    Broad-sector concentration medians did not move as one economy.

    Seventeen strict 2017-2022 Census sector medians point back to the exact six-digit matched rows that make each screen possible.

  4. AR-CI-2026-04Version 1.0

    Domain readout / United States

    Geographic concentration screens point in different directions at different scales.

    Six FCC and FDIC comparisons retain their own geography, ownership rule, reporting universe, and time interval.

  5. AR-CI-2026-05Version 1.0

    Focused note / United States

    National fixed-broadband HHI rose while three geographic medians fell.

    One FCC release provides a useful scale comparison, but the national value and medians of area-level HHIs remain different summary statistics.

  6. AR-CI-2026-06Version 1.0

    Domain readout / United States

    Every national business-flow rate in the monitor was lower in 2023 than in 2022.

    Six Census BDS rates describe establishment and job flows inside one national private-sector universe; none is a concentration or market-power measure.

  7. AR-CI-2026-07Version 1.0

    Domain readout / United States

    Reported HSR volume and the Second Request rate both moved lower in FY2025.

    Two federal program measures preserve their fiscal-year denominator and procedural meaning without converting review activity into a judgment about transactions or agency performance.
