Recession Watch Dashboard

This interactive dashboard, created by the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute, offers timely insights into U.S. and Utah’s economic indicators often associated with past recessions. By combining key data visualizations and subjective probabilities from reputable economic organizations and institutions, the tool supports informed decision-making. Users can explore trends in financial markets, inflation, and output, alongside empirical measures such as yield, expenditures, initial unemployment claims, consumer sentiment, housing starts, and more. Updated biweekly, the dashboard provides critical context for understanding the national and Utah economic environment, helping monitor conditions that may signal the onset of a possible future downturn.
