These are the economic Indicators that I use in my weekly Manufacturing Positivity posts as well as correlate to our PMPA Business Trends Sales indicator. The three resources with an asterisk after the name — Industrial Production, Durable Goods and Total Vehicles Assembled — have the closest correlation to our Index. I do not follow many of the employment indicators as they are after the fact, not leading or contemporaneous.
