Alaska’s Department of Labor and Workforce Development has developed a new feature in their monthly Trends magazine. Each issue will contain an expanded set of economic measures that will offer insight into the health of the state’s economy. The economic measures will show how current data compares to the 10-year average. The article will also provide historical context and look at comparisons in the US economy.
The August issue of Trends looks at job growth, the unemployment rate, and gross domestic product growth. The graphics below provide a visualization of the economic measures outlined in this month’s Trends.
The top half of the gauges represent relative economic strength and the bottom represents weakness. Please visit the Department of Labor for the full report on this month’s economic measures.
