Troubling Economic Indicators

I don't want to be a chicken little, but there are a few economic indicators which should be very concerning to everyone.

Unemployment recently ticked up .3% above its cyclical average. This has preceded the last 12 recessions and as an indicator of recessions it has only been wrong once.
