Composite Leading Indicators for G7 Countries
Composite Leading Indicators (CLIs,
compiled by the OECD) for the G7 Countries in 1955-2017, years corresponding to
solar cycles 19-24, centered along solar maximums.
Fact: For 4
out of 7 countries—for the U.S., Japan, Germany, and Canada—the Composite
Leading Indicators (CLIs) in the currently unfolding solar cycle 24 closely
follow their average pattern from the previous cycles 19-23.
