Seconded. I (think? don't remember) I did Fed Challenge back in the day, and the econ resources I trusted most was Bloomberg/Economics, CNBC/Economics, and FRED by far: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Fed_Challenge https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Fed_Challenge
- baryphonic 7y agoI second that. When I did the College Fed Challenge, FRED was my team's go-to source, followed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and National Bureau of Economic Research. We had a little pipeline where we'd take their data and make nicer-looking charts in Excel that we could import into our slide deck. When I'm taking to laymen about economics, I still refer to FRED charts because they're so accessible and the number of series is enormous.
