A number of bloggers have recently discovered real wages as a labor market indicator. They are at least 3 years late to the party.
Three years ago I blogged about the effect of labor supply on real wages.
I noted how real wages had risen since 2007, and predicted that they would begin to decline in 2010.
I have continued to update this work, eg here, and here.
The fact is that the real wage time series fits my recession narrative very well.
