Business Cycle Indicators

The Economic and Social Research Institute of the Cabinet Office provides comprehensive statistical information for analyzing Japan's economic trends through its business cycle indicators page. Business cycle indicators are classified into three categories: leading series, coincident series, and lagging series, each reflecting different phases of economic activity. Data is published monthly with both preliminary and revised figures available in PDF and Excel formats. The latest data includes June 2025 preliminary figures, with continuous data accumulated since 2021. Each month's statistical release includes overview PDFs and detailed reports, along with references for basic judgment criteria and seasonal adjustment model comparisons. These statistics serve as important indicators for economic analysts, researchers, and policymakers to understand Japan's business cycles and make economic policy and investment decisions.
