问题如下:
Which of the following indicators best predicts a turning point in the economy?
选项:
A.The Industrial Production IndexB.The average bank prime lending rate C.Average weekly hours, manufacturing
解释:
C is correct.
Turning points in leading economic indicators usually precede turning points in the overall economy. Average hours worked per week, manufacturing is a leading economic indicator. The industrial production index is a consistent economic indicator, while the average prime lending rate of banks is a lagging one.
领先经济指标的拐点通常先于整体经济的拐点。平均每周工时,制造业是一个领先的经济指标。产业生产指数是一个同步的经济指标,而银行优惠贷款平均利率是一个滞后的经济指标。
