About the BCC
The Business Cycle Clock (BCC) is a tool showing

structured to represent the empirically observed sequence of turning points of the business,
growth and acceleration cycles.
Please see the user manual
for more information on how to use the tool and the Statistics Explain
article on the BCC for more information on its methodology.
