What websites do you use to monitor the economy?

I was wondering if those of our WSO economists wouldn't mind sharing a list of the economic indicators you monitor and what websites you use to get the information from?

Do you monitor CPI, GDP, Money supply, PPI, Consumer Confidence, CES, Housing Market, 10 Yr Treasury etc.?

Do you use the following websites? or are there better sources out there that consolidate this information? - Bureau of Labor Statistics (https://www.bls.gov/cpi/) - U.S. Treasury (https://home.treasury.gov) - Bureau of Economic Analysis (https://www.bea.gov)

I come bearing good news: https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/indicators

if you have a bloomberg terminal and/or subscription access - that will do you just as well. If you have a brokerage account, odds are they have a page there as well.

I'd guess that yahoo finance and/or google finance aggregate them too - we are lucky to have internal emails that blast them out all the time so i don't need to look myself anymore.

 

For more or less quick checks, there's an app (and website I guess) called Investing.com. It has the data for a lot of the things you mentioned above as well as providing some news and important upcoming events. It's pretty neat and I implore that you give it a try.
