Proceedings:
Since Dan was on the call, we reviewed the need for the population and inputs (arguments) for GDP and PCE. We also discussed housing starts - the definition for start in the US is at https://www.census.gov/construction/nrc/definitions/index.html. Statistics on housing starts are available at https://www.census.gov/construction/nrc/index.html. PPI only covers business construction, because that impacts the cost of doing business, but residential construction is not part of that. See email from Dan on 6/26. Need to confirm with Lucy whether or not the broader definition of PPI includes business construction or not, and in particular residential construction or not.
