Economagic: Economic Time Series Page |
| |
URL:
http://www.EconoMagic.com/ |
| |
This website is made by Ted Bos of University of Alabama, at Birmingham. This page is meant to be a comprehensive site of free, easily available economic time series data useful for economic research, in particular economic forecasting. This site (set of web pages) was started in 1996 to help students in an Applied Forecasting class. The idea was to give students easy access to large amounts of data, and to be able to quickly get charts of that data. There are more than 100,000 time series for which data and custom charts can be retrieved. Though the greatest utility of this site is the vast number of economic time series, and the easily modified charts of that same data, an overlooked facility of great utility is the availability of Excel files for all series. The majority of the data is USA data. The core data sets involve US macroeconomic data (that is, for the whole US), but the bulk of the data is employment data by local area -- state, county, MSA, and many cities and towns. A subscription allows a user to use the on-site programs that provide mechanical forecasts for any time series. These time series can be those freely available on this site, any series that the user pastes to the download area, or any series that the user has negotiated with Economagic to provide or maintain. The price of an annual subscription is US$200, or US$120 for six months. |

New York Mercantile Exchange Glossary |
| |
URL:
http://www.nymex.com/ |
| |
As commerce and industry have matured, each craft developed a vocabulary that uniquely describes its products, technology, and business practices. Often, these words seem incomprehensible to the layman. The terms that are central to the New York Mercantile Exchange can at times seem formidable, especially those pertaining to our industry, futures and options, as well as those of our and metals producers, vendors, and consumers. This short lexicon is not meant to be a comprehensive dictionary; its aim is to foster a better understanding of the business by the trading community, the customers, and the public at large. |

Each two-day gathering is built around a briefing document, background papers, and discussion questions. Participants include a core group of senior policy experts from government, the private sector, and academia; specialists join these discussions as needed. |
