Updating 2 midcycle consumer spending indicators

Ultimately I would like to have a set of indicators to describe an entire business cycle: long leading, short leading, coincident, short lagging, long lagging, and mid-cycle.  A mid-cycle indicator is one that turns roughly in the middle of an economic expansion.  It is a way to focus attention.  Are we in the first part of an expansion, or are we at a point where we should begin to watch for a turn down in long leading indicators?
