Resumo: This paper assesses the predictive power of themain confidence indices available in Brazil to forecast economicactivity. More specifically, we consider a set of economic activityvariables and, for each of those, compare the predictive power of aunivariate autoregressive model to that of a similar model thatincludes a confidence index. Preliminary results using the DieboldMariano test suggest that the Industry Confidence Index providesrelevant information, for both present and the near future, on someeconomic activity variables of interest to the economic agents.
