“The St. Louis Fed’s FRED database now has more than 140,000 economic time series available, due to the addition of the OECD’s Main Economic Indicators. Just today, 58,000 economic time series were added to FRED from the OECD’s rich database. You can check out all the data here. The additional data allow users to make cross-country economic comparisons for the 34 OECD-member countries, plus Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, the Russian Federation and South Africa. These data include granular employment data by age, status and gender; balance of payments data; monetary aggregates; and compensation.” [via Katrina Stierholz]
