Data transparency
Data Freshness
Latest economic observations and provisional presidential approval polling snapshots.
Important: An observation date is not the date the website last checked or imported data. Data can be published after the observation period and revised later. Economic import jobs check unemployment, inflation, and quarterly real GDP. The approval snapshot records its calculation date separately from the underlying polls’ fieldwork dates; neither date is proof of the last automated check.
Weekly economic import
Loading import status…
Scheduled Sunday-night checks compare official FRED unemployment and CPI series with stored observations. A successful check can report zero changes.
Quarterly real GDP import
Loading GDP import status…
The weekly job checks for new quarterly BEA GDP releases and audited historical revisions through FRED. GDP is published quarterly, so most weekly checks will find no changes.
