Reproduce an FT graph

Look at this graph from Financial Times. Your task is to recreate this figure using real-world data.

Use AI as your assistant to find real-world data that matches or closely resembles the one used in the FT graph, and recreate the same chart using that data.

Success Criteria:

• Data accuracy: Real Treasury yield and tariff announcement data
• Design fidelity: Similar visual style, annotations, and layout
• Code quality: Reproducible workflow with clear documentation

what to submit and grading

• Graph: A PDF version of your recreated graph, name it: “lastname_firstname_dawai_week01_ftfigure.pdf” (10p)
• Data: A CSV file with the data used to create the graph, with the name (“lastname_firstname_dawai_week01_ftdata.csv”) (4p)
• Code (any language) (“lastname_firstname_dawai_week01_ftdata.py or .R”), scripts or notebooks also OK. (2p)
• One para text on experience with AI: what model you used, was easy, where was human interaction needed. (“lastname_firstname_dawai_week01_ftdata.txt or .md”) (4p)
