This wiki is a companion the blog A Stubborn Mule's Perspective. It includes the Stubborn Mule Glossary of Terms.

Online Data

Readers of the A Stubborn Mule's Perspective would be well aware of my interest in digging into data, particular data relating to economics and finance. Unfortunately, a lot of this data can be very tricky to dig up. There are a few excellent examples of sites making data available in a very accessible way, particularly the St Louis Fed's FRED database, but in general there is a long way to go.
