    I have noticed the same thing.

    An old boss of mine, used to refer to the LEI as the Misleading Economic Indicator. He said the best leading indicator to watch is Jobless Claims, ignore LEI.

    That was several years ago and what I have followed ever since.

    But does now matter, because all you have to do is be 25% or 50% and it scares the hell our of me. It should scare everyone.

    I am as defensive as I have ever been for a week plus.
