Weekly Indicators for August 31 - September 4 at Seeking Alpha

 

 - by New Deal democrat


My “Weekly Indicators” post is up at Seeking Alpha.

There are some emerging bends in the trends in both the long leading and short leading indicators. The longer term indicators - and here I am talking primarily about bonds - are signaling that higher interest rates are necessitated by both the fiscal and demand components of the economy. In the shorter term, the resurgence of the manufacturing sector continues to be supported by multiple data sources.

As usual, clicking over and reading should bring you thoroughly up to date as to the state of the economy, and reward me a little bit for obtaining and organizing the data in a useful format for you.
