Best Data Sources / Research Firms for Country Analysis (Ex. Bonds, Currency, Equity Index)

Hello everyone, I hope this message finds you well. For those of you in global macro, do you know of any data sources / research firms that write daily reports on  individual countries which can be used to glean insights into their respective bond, currency, and equity markets? I’m looking for daily, qualitative, narratively-structured commentary which focus on current news, fiscal policy, monetary policy, geopolitics, macroeconomics, etc. 


Something like SPGI/Platts Commodity Insights but for individual countries rather than commodity groups. Or TradingEconomics but several pages of info rather than one paragraph. I’ve tried Oxford Economics but their frequency is limited and they are focused on analysis and prediction rather than the raw news itself.  

If you could help me out, that would be greatly appreciated. And if you need me to elaborate on anything, please let me know. My apologies if this is a naive question.
