    Hi,

    I'm compiling a report/presentation and wanted to know where I can really find 'data' in excel format on the U.S. economy. For example, I know I can find unemployment job data on BLS and etc.

    But what about treasury curve, consumer confidence, etc etc.?

    THanks.

    Thanks.

    Do you know about other economic data, like housing prices for case/shiller home index and etc?

    Im not a statistician, but would like to just plot data for some demographics.
