METHODOLOGY AND SOURCES
The methodology used to create these estimates and forecasts are based on U.S. Census as well as other sources (The Economist, The Heritage Foundation, private research studies, trade association studies, etc.).
The Outlook is unique because it is 1) timely (the most recent Census data is from 2004) and 2) highly accurate (our proprietary economic model uses regression analysis for its forecasts as well as a number of data resources to produce concensus industry estimates).
