As anticipated in January, the global economic recovery is becoming more firmly entrenched and is expected to continue at a steady pace. In the United States, growth is solidifying, although consolidation of household and ultimately government balance sheets will limit the pace of the expansion.2011-04-13T11:15:07+00:00Release of the Monetary Policy Report2011-04-13Mark CarneyMonetary Policy Report – April 2011

https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2011/04/working-paper-2011-11/
We evaluate different approaches for using monthly indicators to predict Chinese GDP for the current and the next quarter (‘nowcasts’ and ‘forecasts’, respectively). We use three types of mixed-frequency models, one based on an economic activity indicator (Liu et al., 2007), one based on averaging over indicator models (Stock and Watson, 2004), and a static factor model (Stock and Watson, 2002).2011-04-05T07:44:52+00:00enMixed Frequency Forecasts for Chinese GDP2011-04-05Econometric and statistical methodsInternational topicsWorking Paper 2011-11https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/wp11-11.pdfMixed Frequency Forecasts for Chinese GDPPhilipp MaierApril 2011CC5C50C53EE3E37E4E47Senior Loan Officer Survey - First-Quarter 2011

The survey results point to an overall net easing in business-lending conditions. Both the price and non-price aspects of business lending eased during the first quarter. Note that the balance of opinion indicates only the direction of the change in lending conditions; it does not provide information on the magnitude of the change.2011-04-04T10:30:40+00:00enSenior Loan Officer Survey - First-Quarter 20112011-04-04Business Outlook Survey - Spring 2011

Businesses remain positive about the economic outlook, although some forward-looking indicators have eased from the levels recorded in recent surveys, and the strength in commodity prices has raised expectations for costs and inflation.
