How EconomicHQ uses data
EconomicHQ distinguishes the date a release was published from the period the data describes. When a series is revised, explainers identify whether the number is an initial estimate or a later revision. Regional or Georgia/Southeast data is not presented as if it describes the entire United States.
Data areas to understand
Inflation & prices
Use CPI and PCE together with the reporting period, category detail, and methodology behind the number.
Jobs & wages
Read payroll employment, unemployment, labor-force participation, job openings, and wage measures together rather than relying on one headline statistic.
Growth & spending
Use GDP, personal income, and consumer-spending data with attention to revisions and inflation adjustment.
Regional context
Georgia and Southeast indicators can add local context, but regional evidence should remain clearly separated from national conclusions.
Data standard: when EconomicHQ displays a changing statistic, the source and reporting period should appear with the number so readers can verify what it represents.
