The Decision Analyst Economic Index is based on a monthly Internet survey
of several thousand households balanced by gender, age, and geography. The
online survey is conducted the last 10 days of each month. The Economic
Index is calculated from nine different economic measurements using a sophisticated
econometric model. The result is a snapshot of current economic activity
in each country surveyed, as seen through the eyes of representative consumers
living in the respective countries. Decision Analyst conducts its concurrent
economic surveys each month in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile,
China, Colombia, France, Germany, India, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Peru,
Russian Federation, Spain, United Kingdom, United States, and Venezuela. |
