| Definition: |
The cyclical component of a time series refers to (regular or periodic) fluctuations around the trend, excluding the irregular component, revealing a succession of phases of expansion and contraction.
The cyclical component can be viewed as those fluctuations in a time series which are longer than a given threshold, e.g. 1½ years, but shorter than those attributed to the trend.
