Portugal macroeconomic model analysis
The two most important economic indicators of the Portugal economy are real economic growth expectations and inflation. MacroVar uses Portugal Manufacturing ESI Order Books to gauge economic growth expectations and Portugal Manufacturing ESI Selling Price expectations of next months to gauge inflation expectations. Portugal’s economy is healthy when it generates stable economic growth with low inflation. Policymakers (the government and the central bank) use fiscal and monetary policy to inject liquidity during slowdowns (to solve weak economic growth) and withdraw liquidity from an overheating economy (to solve high inflation).
