لماذا يهم
No single statistic is reliable; a composite gives an early, smoother signal of turning points in the business cycle.
طريقة الحساب
Components such as new orders, building permits, share prices, credit and jobless claims are standardised and averaged; the index is reported as a level and a change.
ما تعنيه التغيرات
- Several months of decline in a leading index have often preceded recessions, with false alarms.
- Markets usually react little because most components are already known.
أعلى من المتوقع: A stronger figure than expected points to a healthier economy: it usually supports the South African rand and local stocks, and can push bond yields up.
أقل من المتوقع: A weaker figure than expected points to slowing activity: the South African rand tends to soften and markets price in lower rates.
لمحة تاريخية قصيرة
Wesley Mitchell and Arthur Burns at the National Bureau of Economic Research developed leading indicators in the 1930s; the Conference Board publishes the best-known US index today.
