For the institution as a whole, this indicator, which shows changes in the economic cycle several months ago, fell 17 percent in October and settled at 98.4 points, that is, below the level of 100 that represents the long-term average. Biggest monthly drop so far, Chile’s percentage, from 59 percent to 94.45 points, is the lowest among the 38 member countries of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.
