I am after monthly base line numbers for headline CPI. [Ie thats the CPI for all goods and services ( before YOY% calculations are made). ] I am after this data for these economies: New Zealand Austrialia USA UK Japan Canada Europe ( ak germany) Data going as far back as possible ie 1901. What service sites out there may supply this data paid or unpaid. I know I can spend time at Central banks sites, but to save time are there any sites that sell the lot ??? Please advise ...
For Italy, aggregated CPI is free: http://www.istat.it/prezzi/precon/rivalutazioni/ as a lot of pre-worked data, if you understand italian. if you want pre-calculation data you have to buy it from ISTAT (institute of statitics, a governmental institution). Their contact is info@istat.it or marketing@istat.it (more info on www.istat.it). If you qualify as a researcher use https://contact.istat.it//Index.php?Lingua=Inglese. If you find something interesting, please keep us informed, I always like a new analisys to compare with official CPI and shadowstats.com
