Direct signals are macro indicator signals of what is directly being measured. For example‚ the consumer price index for urban consumers tells us what is happening to the general price level of consumer goods in US urban locations. Another example of a direct signal would be the unemployment rate since it measures the percent of labor force that is unemployed. Indirect signals come from watching the movement of causally related indicators‚ and drawing conclusions about one from the movement of the
