520.0. "INCOME & PRICE inflation" by MAYDAY::ANDRADE (The sentinel (.)(.)) Thu Jul 08 1993 09:41

    Macro-Economic Indicators:
    
    When you are investing, a real concern is the risk you take, due
    to macro-economic fluctuations.  So people naturaly like to keep
    track of Currency fluctuations, inflation, political stability...
    
    I often wondered what the relation between  PRICE inflation  and
    INCOME inflation is. But never had the time and data to check it
    out. Together they are would sure make a great indicator.
    
    Just as most people keep track of their net-income from whatever
    sources against inflation  I would like to keep track of country
    wide INCOME inflation against  PRICE inflation on a year by year
    or in a more detailed basis if possible.
    
    Does anyone have  this data for the last few years, I would like
    to see it posted here.  But a pointer to  a source would be just
    as welcome.
    
    Thanks,	Gil
