Economic Forecosters F and Critics
Argue Cause Of Faulty Predictions

bers; If one is wrong, all are

At a financial analysts con-

the precarious field Of economic
forecasting, it is sometimes i'm
possible to find the basis of a
guess gone sour.
Economists, by and large,
point to the raw statistics and
so-called leading economic in
dicators" from which their pre-
dictions are derived. A fore
cast, they say, can be no better
than the statistics that 60 into
its making.
Statistical compilers - tn e
leading one being the Govern
ment - contend, on the other
hand, that Statistus are better
and more reliable than ever
before. Some $88 million will
be spent this year in gathering,
compiling and analyzing the
various assortment Of Govern
ment statistics, which are a
major ingredient In most eco
nomic forecasts.
Old Data Not Helpful
Each month the Commerce
Department publishes a Fat
booklet called Business Cycle
Developments, which charts the
80 leading economic indicators
and other basic data. This in
formation is compiled from
various Government sources,
such as the Labor Department
where some 1900 employees put
together important statistics
like employment and wage fig
ures.
Even though the use Of elec-
tronic computers has vastly
speeded up the process, S o m e
statistics lag several weeks be-
hind, sn irksome problem for
economists.
OF the Governments 80 lead
ing indicators, only "a are avail
able every month. The others
are figured every six months. At
best, statistics are only a rec
ord of what has already occur
red, and the older the informa-
ton, economists point out, the
less its value in helping them
to forecast what will happen six
or a year in the future.
Critics Of the forecasters
agree that some indicators lag,
and that some statistics are
more reliable than others. The
indicators, as read by m o S e
economists, predicted each of
the three major postwar re-
cessionS and recoveries, but they
also predicted three recessions
that never came off.
Because no statistic is fool
proof, onomic forecasters
should exercise more care in
using them, it is argued. Fore
casters, critics contend, are
the target so often be-
cause they have begun to rely
too heavily on statistical data,
supplied by the Govern
ment, and less on their own
methods, techniques,
personal knowledge and exper-
ience.
The growing Importance of
being right - millions, even
billions, of dollars could rest on
an economic forecast - h s.
brought on a tendency for FORE
casters to stick together. it is

BY DON BACON
Star Staff Writer

Every so often the Nations
top economists stir together a
heady concoction of statistics,
and come up with something
called an economic forecast.
These predictions tell
whether the country is heading
for a recession or whether in
creased prosperity is just
around the corner. The finan-
cial policies of the Government,
private business and, to q les
ser extent, the average family,
often depend on what the econ
omists read from their statis-
tical brew.
The trouble of late, however,
is that the economic experts
have, with embarrassing regu-
larity, been wrong.
A controversy has developed
In recent weeks between critics
who say the fault lies with the
economists, and those who say
the basic statistics they must
use are faulty.
Reason for the current de-
bate is that at the end Of 1862,
the economic forecasters peered
into their pot of alphabet soup,
and concluded that the econ
omy would slide into a mild
recession this spring. There
were some notable exceptions,
but that was the prevailing
opinion.
Surprised by Upturn
Many were surprised when,
instead of a decline, the general
economy took a sharp turn up
ward. The stock market is
pushing toward new records,
consumer sales of automobiles
and other durables are the best
in years, and employment,
wages and capital expenditures
are all pointing up.
Many private forecasters, in
cluding those employed by the
Business Council, a leading
voice Of American business,
have had to revise their eco
nomic outlooks for 1868.
Caught short with their earli-
er predictions, Business Council
economists this month recon-
sidered their estimate of the
Gross National Product, and
said it would rise to around
1878 billion this year, several
billions above earlier estimates.
Other forecasters, less skit-
tish now about going out on a
limb. are predicting a GIMP =
the sum of all goods and serv-
ices - this year as high as
$500 billion.
All this has tended to en-
nance somewhat the prestige of
President Kennedy's Council of
Economic Advisors, whose pre-
diction of a $578 billion GIMP
for 1868 (now raised to $3.50
billfon) was considered a joke
by many private economists at
the beginning Of the year. In
1862, they remembered, the
Councils GIMP prediction was
far too optimistic.
Why do so many economic
predictions turn out wrong? In
