STARKVILLE, MS, –24 June2021 – Camgian, an award-winning defense and financial tech company, is pleased to announce the release of the Camgian Heavy Equipment Index (HEI). The HEI measures real-time production activity “output” at select heavy equipment manufacturers throughout the United States.
The index covers 46 different types of heavy equipment, which can be referenced in sub-categories of agriculture equipment, construction equipment, and commercial vehicles. HEI is a daily index that is released publicly on the last Thursday of each month and includes data through the 15th day of each month. Early access is available on a weekly basis.
“With the speed of change witnessed in the economy over the past year, along with the growth and adoption of alternative data, we wanted to utilize our production activity data to provide a real-time, hard data indicator to assess the overall strength of the heavy equipment manufacturing industry,” said Camgian VP of FinTech Sales Kevin Tingley
HEI monitors actual production activity “output” and comprises a small, focused sub-sector of manufacturing. While it is not a direct comparison to traditional PMI or Industrial Production indicators, it does provide valuable real-time insight into production activity within the traditionally volatile economic category of capital/durable goods. This indicator provides a real-time observation into the overall health of the heavy equipment manufacturing sector and industrial production at large.
