Economic Data & Indicators

The study of economics is replete with a variety of indicators and a good deal of data that are collected by various public and private organizations. Economists use such variables in constructing models of a given economy. Among these indicators are the unemployment rate, the consumer price index (CPI), the inflation rate, money supply, consumer confidence, etc. Many private corporations and individual investors also pay close attention to such indicators. Government organizations provide much of these data, with the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Department of Labor being foremost among them.
