 ===Time-Series Analyses of Google Trends===
 [http://www.google.com/finance/domestic_trends Google-Trends] tracks Internet search traffic across specific sectors of the economy using the Google Search Engine. Alterations in the search volume of a given sector may provide unique economic insights to the public perception and real economic trends in the US. Each trend-index measures relative query volume compared to the total number of searches on google.com, hence a decreasing index implies that the relative frequency of this search topic is lower (not necessarily that the total number of searches is decreasing).
