Lagging Economic IndicatorsAccording to The Conference Board, there are seven lagging economic indicators. Lagging indicators mean that they come after a recession or recovery. They are not used to predict, but they tell you either yes we are on sure footing or things may be a bit shaky because the lagging indicators haven't shown up yet. Here are the lagging indicators.1- Duration of unemployment. 2- Value of outstanding commercial and industrial loans. 3- Change in the Consumer Price Index for services. 4- Change in labor cost per unit of output. 5- Ratio of manufacturing and trade inventories to sales. 6- Ratio of consumer credit outstanding to personal income. 7- Average prime rate charged by banks.
Other Lagging Indicators
Other lagging indicators are corporate profitability and interest rates. Once the economy is doing well, interest rates will rise as demand for money increases due to economic expansion. Finally, once corporations have increased profitability that means the recession is over.
