"怪異的每日經濟指標"

經濟指標可指出經濟的走向。稍微一瞥，就能知道經濟現在表現如何，未來走勢又將如何。與其看索然無味的經濟報告，何不出門看看街上正發生的事？

女性最新流行是甚麼？經濟學家發現，女性穿著和購買物似乎和當今經濟狀態息息相關。如果女性穿短裙，則經濟表現佳。另一方面，如果鞋跟如天高，那麼經濟正走下坡。

特定物品的銷售也可以呈現出經濟處頹勢的跡象。口紅的銷售成長讓化妝品業者笑得合不攏嘴，但這也意謂女性試著省錢不買更昂貴的奢侈品。如果男性內褲銷售下滑，大家要開始擔心了，因為這是男性荷包乾癟時會先省下來不買的東西。

電影院是否大排長龍？這是個壞徵兆，因為人們都想逃避現實生活中所遭遇的困頓和煩惱。據傳電影產業在2009年全球經濟衰退票房最佳。
