For some reason, the ECRI doesn't publish weekly press releases anymore on its Weekly Leading Index readings - although one can still get access to the weekly readings via a (free) registration.

For the week ending June 17, 2005, the Weekly Leading Index level is at 133.4 - a growth rate of 0.2% from last year. I will try to update this thread every week from now on.

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday!

Henry

Economy continues to surprise on the down side:

Look at that drop in prices paid!

Again the question: when will bad news become bad news?

Week ending 10/20/2006:

WLI = 136.4
Annual ROC = -0.1%

Too early to say that the economy is showing signs of recovery but this latest statistic from the ECRI is encouraging ("not too hot and not too cold").

Hi Henry

I'm glad to see you follow ECRI's work. Lakshman Achuthan, a managing director at ECRI, has a ECRI Discussion Forum where he answers questions. I'd like to invite you and your readers to take advantage of this. Lakshman and I've become good friends over the past years and even met for breakfast when he was on my side of the US for a conference in Berkeley, CA. a few months ago.

ECRI Forum

Best Regards

ECRI weekly leading index still pointing to subdued growth in the U.S. economy but definitely not a recession at this point:

WLI = 135.3
Annual ROC = -1.4%

Jury still out but it looks like that the Fed paused at the "right time." Oil prices have moderated and it looks like metal prices (maybe even nickel?) will do the same.
