We have most of the components now. Extreme-adjusted (a process which removes statistical aberrations), it rose 0.36%, unadjusted 0.40%. Quite respectable, really. It looks more and more plausible that at least part of the weakness in previous months was due to aftereffects of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami, and floods in the US Midwest. You can see the effects very clearly in the "level" chart (the lower one)
