Saw Index Page

The SAW index is a quarterly measure of economic activity that combines data on wages, employment, and state-level economic indicators to provide a comprehensive picture of the US economy. The index is designed to capture the underlying trends in economic activity, rather than just focusing on a single indicator such as GDP growth. By incorporating a wide range of data, the SAW index provides a more nuanced understanding of the economy, allowing policymakers and researchers to better assess the state of economic activity.
