The Leading Composite Index in Japan is comprised of 12 indexes, which include account inventory ratios, machinery orders, stock prices, and other leading economic indicators. The indicator forecasts changes in the direction of the Japanese economy in the following months. A rising coincident index, in general, indicates that the economy is in an expansion phase, whereas a declining coincident index indicates that the economy is in a contraction phase. In order to determine when the business cycle begins and finishes, the index is utilized.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the JPY while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the JPY.
