  1. I keep on searching the web but I cannot find a company I knew of in the past that offered montly updates on a CD of all US economic indicators. I forgot its name. Does anyone know of a service like that? Paid or free?

    I am especially interested in inflation and commodity indicators - historical monthly data since 1960 - 1970.
     
  2. You may be thinking of Haver Analytics, as it's most commonly used as the source for US economic and mkt data.

    Generally, you might want to check if what you're looking for isn't available for free from FRED:
