NEW YORK, Aug. 18, 2017
NEW YORK, Aug. 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The Conference Board
Leading Economic Index(R) (LEI) for Mexico increased 0.2 percent in
June 2017 to 102.9 (2010=100).
The Conference Board Coincident Economic Index(R) (CEI) for
Mexico also increased 0.2 percent in June 2017 to 123.6
(2010=100).
The composite economic indexes are the key elements in an
analytic system designed to signal peaks and troughs in the
business cycle. The leading and coincident economic indexes are
essentially composite averages of several individual leading or
coincident indicators. They are constructed to summarize and reveal
common turning point patterns in economic data in a clearer and
more convincing manner than any individual component -- primarily
because they smooth out some of the volatility of individual
components.
The updated data tables can be found here.
The 2017 data release schedule is available here.
