Description of Using Economic Indicators to Improve Investment Analysis |
Written in clear, nontechnical terms and clearly organized by sectors of the economy, this accessible guide:
- Takes a close look at GDP, with an overview of the macroeconomic framework using the standard national income accounting methodology
- Compares and contrasts consumer sector indicators to distinguish which series are more reliable and consistent
- Differentiates between all measures of inflation, and makes the key distinction between inflation in the goods market and inflation in the services market
- Explores foreign market indicators, including the monthly and quarterly indicators for the foreign exchange, domestic bond, and equity markets
- Contains new material on the Federal Reserve - how it works and its policymaking system
Cutting through the ambiguity that often surrounds coverage of economic indicators in the business sections and the financial press, this is essential reading for anyone looking to make sense of vital economic figures.

It is required reading for everyone at Market News Service. For those looking to make intelligent investment decisions, the information in this book is essential.'
Michael J. Conner - CEO, Market News Service, Inc.
'The complexity of Tainer's subject matter should not discourage even small investors form studying her work. she is on the mark in describing each of the economic indicators and the typical reactions in financial markets. This book will prove especially valuable for money managers, who might well refer to it almost daily, as government reports flow in.'
