Australian leading economic index falls 0.1% in September

The Conference Board (CB) released its leading economic index for Australia on late Tuesday evening. The leading economic index decreased 0.1% in September, after a 0.4% drop in August.

The decrease was driven by a drop in building approvals and share prices.

The coincident index was up 0.2% in September, after a 0.4% gain in August.

The rise was driven by an increase in household gross disposable income, retail trade and industrial production.
