Baltic Dry Index As Leading Indication
The Baltic Dry Index (BDI) makes for an interesting but imperfect leading indicator for the movements of stock prices. I don’t know exactly why this works, and why occasionally it stops working, but the relationship has been going on for years and so at some point one just stops asking why.

Market Breadth Data Notes
- We use WSJ/Barron's data for our final breadth numbers. Calculations made on numbers from other sources will show a slightly different result.
- We wait until late in the day in order to have access to the "final" numbers.
- This reflects final readings for the indicators covered.
- Values for indicators calculated using preliminary numbers released just after the close usually differ slightly from these numbers.
- We usually recommend that readers keep their own data for themselves, but this is a useful way to check and see if your numbers agree with ours.
