THE latest Composite
Leading Indicators (CLIs) continue to show a positive improvement in the momentum
of economic activities in the OECD as a whole.
The
USA and Japan continue to be the flag-bearer for the overall momentum. As
per the latest indicators, tentative signals have been recorded from other
major OECD economies in the Euro area.
The CLIs for India and Russia are also showing stronger signs of a positive
change in growth momentum. However the CLIs for China and Brazil continue to
point to below-trend growth.
The OECD Development Centre's Asian Business Cycle Indicators (ABCIs) show
weak growth momentum of most ASEAN economies, with some signs of improvements.
