Konjunkturampel
The Business Cycle Traffic Light (Konjunkturampel) captures at a glance the changes in important economic indicators for Germany, the Eurozone, the USA and China.
This can only be achieved by establishing which improvements and deteriorations in the short-term development of the economy can be defined as relevant. Like its individual underlying indicators the Business Cycle Traffic Light represents the status of information a varying number of months ago, thus partly reflecting the inevitable recognition lags in business cycle diagnosis.
