The leading index decreased 0.1 percent, the coincident index increased 0.2 percent, and the lagging index increased 0.2 percent in August. Taken together, the three composite indexes and their components show a healthy economy:

The coincident indicators point to GDP rising at a pace of 3.0 percent (annualized) in the 3rd quarter of 1999.
The leading indicators point to a continuation of the expansion through early 2000.
Cyclical imbalances and related economic instability problems do not seem to be a problem yet.
