Leading Indicators for the British Economy

C. Drakatos

National Institute Economic Review, 1963, vol. 24, 42-49

Abstract: One method of short-term economic forecasting is the use of indicators which normally change direction in advance of business activity as a whole. This method has been extensively developed over many years, with some success, by the National Bureau of Economic Research in the United States. In the present article we have explored the possibility of finding such a set of leading indicators for the British economy, with special reference to post-war movements.
