Treat volatility as a hint, not a conclusion. The volatility score below is a 7-day rolling average of rank-1–10 movement across our monitored corpus. It rises when something is happening, but it doesn’t prove what is happening. Always cross-reference with the update’s public source before drawing a conclusion.

Core update Major Tracker placeholder — launch-day state. This page ships with an empty feed on launch day. The tracker back-end runs on a scheduled job that pulls confirmed updates from Google’s public search-status dashboard + a small whitelist of trusted third-party sources. First real entry lands when the scheduler fires post-launch. › Google Search Status Dashboard (source)
