How this service works
OECD Composite Leading Indicator (amplitude-adjusted, long-term trend = 100), the reference early signal of business-cycle turning points. Query: ?area=USA&n=6 (area codes: USA, DEU, FRA, GBR, JPN, G20...; n = last N monthly values, 1-36). Returns monthly observations plus a computed cycle_signal (expansion/downturn/slowdown/recovery). Published ~mid-month by OECD; 24h cache.
Output
An array of up to 36 monthly CLI observations (amplitude-adjusted, long-term trend = 100) for the requested OECD area, each tagged with a computed cycle_signal value indicating the current business-cycle phase (expansion, downturn, slowdown, or recovery). Data is sourced from OECD's official release (~mid-month) and cached for 24 hours.
Example use cases
Economic recession early warning system
“Check the OECD leading indicator for Germany over the last 12 months and let me know if there are any signs of downturn or slowdown forming — I need to know if we should be preparing contingency plans.”
Global portfolio allocation timing
“Pull the latest OECD composite leading indicators for the USA, UK, and Japan — give me the cycle phase for each one so I can decide whether to stay bullish or trim exposure in any of these markets.”
Quarterly earnings forecast adjustment
“Fetch the OECD CLI data for France and the Eurozone from the last 18 months and tell me what phase they're in now — I need to adjust our Q2 revenue guidance based on whether the economy is accelerating or slowing down.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://x402-datashop-production.up.railway.app/v1/global/leading-indicatorsWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need official OECD amplitude-adjusted CLI data with a precomputed business-cycle phase label (expansion/slowdown/downturn/recovery) rather than raw statistical data. Ideal for macroeconomic dashboards, investment cycle analysis, or early-warning systems that need a single authoritative signal across major economies (USA, DEU, FRA, GBR, JPN, G20, etc.) without building your own OECD data pipeline.
Side effects
- Invalid area code returns an error (e.g. unsupported or misspelled country code)
- n out of range (must be 1-36) returns a validation error
- OECD data not yet published for the current month returns most recent available data
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) returns 402 Payment Required
- Upstream OECD data source unavailable causes 503 or cached stale response
