After the bad news about inflation e occupation, finally some positive numbers for the United States. In July, the economic super index recorded the third consecutive monthly increase, growing by 0,5%. It is a pity that the increase is not enough to give hope for a recovery that seems to be getting further away every day.
"The growth of the super-index in recent months has been modest, especially if you look at the non-financial components," commented Ken Glodstein, economist at the Conference Board, the pool of researchers that elaborates the data. Six of the ten items on which the super-index is built improved last month.
The most significant growth was recorded in the money supply and the interest rate spread. The worst indicator was that on deliveries by suppliers.
