Abstract

Das ifo Geschäftsklima für die gewerbliche Wirtschaft ist ein viel beachteter Frühindikator für die Konjunktur in Deutschland. Die hier präsentierten Berechnungen zeigen, dass das ifo Geschäftsklima hinsichtlich der Vorlaufeigenschaften speziell an konjunkturellen Wendepunkten sehr gut abschneidet. Im betrachteten Untersuchungszeitraum 1970 bis 2006 konnte das ifo Geschäftsklima die weitaus überwiegende Zahl der datierten Wendepunkte frühzeitig signalisieren.
