Construction and Retail

Understanding the business environment requires not only understanding production but the consumption side of the equation. The construction and retail sectors are two, exceptionally large sectors of the economy, impacting bit only individual but business consumers. As with all models included in The Watch, the Construction and Retail sector models are based on inputs from multiple economic indicators and leverage our understanding of industrial production.

Each of our Construction and Retail models include:

  • 18-month forecasts for twenty-year trends
  • Additional insights and intelligence on trends, pricing (where available in the producer price index), and other industry-shaping factors (politics, global economic trends, etc.)
