The Conference Board Leading Economic Index® has an excellent track record of predicting recessions.  Currently the index is predicting a recession in 2024 and only one of the ten components of the index, the S&P 500, is expanding. Normally, since the S&P 500 is a leading economic indicator, the index cannot be used to time the stock market.  Currently either economic conditions in the USA must improve, or more likely, the S&P 500 must drop in 2024 to make the index members consistent.

The ten components of The Conference Board Leading Economic Index® for the U.S. include: Average weekly hours in manufacturing; Average weekly initial claims for unemployment insurance; Manufacturers’ new orders for consumer goods and materials; ISM® Index of New Orders; Manufacturers’ new orders for nondefense capital goods excluding aircraft orders; Building permits for new private housing units; S&P 500® Index of Stock Prices; Leading Credit Index™; Interest rate spread (10-year Treasury bonds less federal funds rate); Average consumer expectations for business conditions.
