What do truckers and economists have in common? At first guess most would venture to say not much, but a new economic index that tracks trucking fuel consumption across the U.S. begs to differ. Ceridian, provider of resource and payment solutions to businesses around the world, has recently teamed up with UCLA economists to launch the Ceridian-UCLA Pulse of Commerce Index.

In my part of the world (central Canada) I measure the economic growth of the area by the number of household appliances my company delivers.
We are subcontracted to do Sears home delivery.This has been keping my men busy,but now they want more delivery trucks on the road.Therefore sales must be increasing and customers must have more money to spend. Ergo. the economy in my area is BOOMING.
