The ISM Chicago Business survey is a regional view of the national economy; is a time-tested, market-moving report. The Chicago Report™ is available on the last working day each month. The Chicago Business Barometer™ summarizes current Business Activity. The Barometer is considered to be a leading indicator of the U.S.A. economy.
For more than seven decades, the Chicago Business Barometer™ has been providing leading insight on the U.S. economy. The Chicago Business Barometer™ is delivered to subscribers via the MNI Chicago Report™, a monthly report published by MNI Indicators that presents valuable information on the U.S. economic activity and a fresh look at current U.S. business conditions. The report consists of seven Business Activity indicators and three Buying Policy indicators that represent activity and performance levels compared to the prior month.
Purchasing and Supply Management professionals in the Chicago area, primarily members of ISM Chicago, are polled to assess business conditions for their respective companies every month.
The Agenda for our Lunch and Learn will be:
- What is the Chicago Business Barometer™?
- Why is it important?
- Key Terminology
- What can I do with the data?
- How can I participate?
