Lagging

This dimension sorts economic indicators by their timing class, leading, lagging or coincident with the business cycle. Wikipedia notes that "one application of economic indicators is the study of business cycles," a study that depends on knowing whether a given indicator moves ahead of, alongside or behind the cycle itself. Browsing by timing class keeps indicators of the same timing relationship grouped together.
