The leading indicators were right

News. European stocks climbed as government data showed gross domestic product rose a seasonally adjusted 0.3 percent from the first quarter in Germany and France, pulling the euro region’s two largest economies out of their worst contractions since World War II. Shares in Asia climbed after Fed policy makers signaled they aren’t rushing to end unprecedented efforts to promote lending and stabilize the world’s biggest economy.

My point. The leading indicators of all the major countries shown in our monthly special report The Global Business Cycle were correct. The global economy is giving signs of turning around. Including the USA.
