Dover, DE — State Treasurer Chip Flowers and the Delaware State Treasury, under its newly created Office of Economic Policy, today released the “Delaware Economic Index,” an easy-to-use summary of key state economic data. The index rated the state economy as ‘fair’ over the past sixty (60) days.
The index consists of figures and observations on unemployment, housing, consumer confidence, interest rates, state spending and private sector business action in Delaware. The data was gathered from a variety of federal, state and private sources. The “Delaware Economic Index” also implements a color-coded financial early warning system that characterizes the state economic climate over the past 60 days as viewed by the Delaware State Treasury.
