Economic drudge report site?

April 13, 2010 6:26 PM

Does anyone know of a quick hit economic dashboard where I can get all the economic data in a snapshot?

Looking for a site that has all the leading economic indicators - stuff like the yield curve, interest rates, bond rates, CPI, PPI, employment rate, etc displayed on a single page in a easy, consumable manner.

There are a ton of quick hit news sites like that (e.g. the drudgereport) that just give you the headlines. Ideally, this site would just have the 'headlines' of the economy.

If you want a lot of economic reports with tiny little Tufte-style sparklines charts, then try Economy.com. Also try Bloomberg's economic calendar or Briefing.com's economic calendar.

Not quite "heads-up" but it's all at FRED. Maybe someone has scripted a multi-graph "presentation" browser for this data (Yahoo Pipes?)?

Response by poster: In my hunting, I came across this nice little widget.
