Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a collaboration between American Debt Project and Don't Quit Your Day Job where we took construciton data (as a percentage of GDP) and tried to see what (if anything!) that percentage said about boom and bust times in advanced economies. The United States, Japan, and China all make an appearance.
Can Tracking Construction Help Predict Economic Decline? (at DQYDJ)
Construction Starts Data and Building in a Down Economy (at ADP)
It's always good fun teaming up on one of these! If you want to collaborate with either of us, definitely drop a line.

Thanks everyone! And ADP, no worries – and I'm going to try to follow up with some US and Canada data. I'll be in touch when/if I find anything.
