Nikkei 225 daily close-to-close log returns (FRED NIKKEI225, 1949+). Japan-market analog of the S&P series; similar heavy-tailed structure.
Standard analysis sees: heavy-tailed; left-skewed; aperiodic / broadband; high-complexity (noise-like); time-irreversible (sharp rises, slow decay). The atlas finds no named structure, but the source is distinctively extreme on Cayley:spectral_gap (+3.5z) — beyond what the standard bank predicts for it.
Cayley:spectral_gap | +3.5z | bank-miss 1.2σ |
Nonstationarity:ac1_trend | -3.1z | bank-miss 1.0σ |
Boltzmann:coupling_temporal_variance | +3.1z | bank-miss 1.1σ |
