Macro
Economic Data by Country: Every Indicator's History, Next Release and the News Behind It
For the United States, the euro zone, the United Kingdom, Japan, China and more: each indicator's recent prints, the next release with its consensus, and the news wire filtered to that country.
The economy page is organised by country. For each, every indicator the desk tracks is listed with its last prints, so the trend in inflation, employment, growth and the purchasing managers' surveys is read as a short history rather than as one number. The next scheduled release of each indicator is shown with its consensus forecast and the previous value, which is what the market will measure it against.
Beneath the indicators, the news wire is filtered to the country in view, so the headlines that explain a print or anticipate the next one sit on the same page. The combination answers the two questions a release day raises: what was expected, and what has been said since.
The countries covered include the United States, the euro zone, the United Kingdom, Japan, China, Canada, Australia and Switzerland, and the same indicators are kept for each so that a comparison across countries uses the same terms.
