My private sector index looks ..... terrible

I've updated my composite index of private sector data sources.  They now are (equal weights):

1. The whole-economy ISM index
2. The whole-economy PMI index
3. The University of Michigan consumer sentiment index
4. The Conference Board's consumer confidence index
5. The LMI logistics index
6. ADP's monthly job change
7. Challenger's monthly job losses
8. "Jobs easy to fill", from the NFIB survey (data only through September; October values out this week)
9. "Jobs are plentiful" from the Conference Board survey

I've plotted the resulting index after extreme-adjusting it, mainly to remove the massive down-spike during the Covid Crash. 

It looks more bearish than my previous index.  In fact, it looks terrible.

For the data nerds among you, here's the chart of the index before and after extreme-adjustment:
