Welcome back from the holiday, and welcome to the first edition of WordMaster@Work's autumn season! The long-term forecast is for clear skies, cool breezes, and a long bout of prosperity!
- An economic indicator is a statistical measure that tells us something about the condition of the economy; for example, the unemployment rate or the consumer price index.
- economic indicator とは、例えば失業率や消費者物価指数など、経済状況が分かる統計的な尺度、つまり、経済指標のことです。
- The Bureau of Government Statistics publishes quarterly and annual economic indicators and makes them available online.
- I'm retired on a fixed income, so two economic indicators I follow very closely are interest rates and the inflation rate.
- We took a careful look at trends in the country's economic indicators over the past ten years before deciding to invest there.
- “Leading” economic indicators, such as employment statistics and stock market returns, anticipate changes in the economy (= change before the economy does).
We wish you well!
