The choice of indicators is based on a pseudo out-of-sample forecasting exercise that is implemented by Leigh and Rossi (2002), and Stock and Watson (2003), amongst others. Our findings provide evidence on the factors determining changes in real activity and inflation over an extended sample period that encompasses episodes of volatile inflation and output growth as well as the recent experience of disinflation and normalisation for the Turkish economy.General businessManagementAccountingIdentifying leading indicators of real activity and inflation for Turkey, 1988-2010: a pseudo out-of-sample forecasting approachJournal Articlehttps://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85043552493&doi=10.1787%2fjbcma-2013-5k4221j86n8v&partnerID=40&md5=1724fe51379d9ca3d4ad95c37be4979b252
