The Coincident and Leading Barometers rise slightly in June, breaking a sequence of three consecutive declines. However, the outlook for global economic growth remains lower in the first half of the year than expected at the beginning of the year.
In June, the Global Economic Coincident Barometer rises by 1.4 points to 93.8 points, with increases across all three major analyzed regions. The Leading Barometer, in turn, rises modestly by 0.4 points to 96.5 points, driven only by an increase in the Western Hemisphere region, while the other regions move in the opposite direction.
