These posts are invaluable. This blog continues to be so tremendously informative it's wild. However, providing a separate tutorial/page where effective demand is explained would help folks in understanding your framework. Right now you have to jump around several different posts to pick up bits & pieces.

Best regards and please keep it up.

David,
That is a good idea ... to make a separate page to explain effective demand.
Right now I just use an old post.

Data as of 3rdQ-2018
Effective Demand = $18.433 trillion
Real GDP = $18.671 trillion
Productive Capacity = $24.872 trillion
UT index is at effective demand limit = -0.92%
Effective demand limit = 74.1%
TFUR = 75.1%
ED Fed rate rule = 4.0%
Estimated Natural Real Interest rate = 2.3%
Short-term real interest rate = 2.8%

There is no recession for 3rdQ-2018. Chance of recession is growing as economy has now reached 2nd effective demand limit in this business cycle. I am forecasting that economic conditions will begin to contract in the second half of 2018.
