Weekly Indicators for October 26 - 30 at Seeking Alpha

 

 - by New Deal democrat


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

The long leading indicators have been trending towards neutral at last since the start of the Iran conflict. But what is new over the last few weeks i that the short leading indicators are also beginning to trend in that direction. They’re still positive, but less so than even a month or two ago - although two components, stock prices and jobless claims, as I’ve been documenting here weekly, are still very positive.

As usual, clicking over and reading will bring you up to the virtual moment as to the state of the economy, and reward me with a penny or two for my efforts.
