In view of the recent dynamic events in the World Economy, EU, CEE and Bulgaria, such as RUB depreciation, Oil depreciation, commodities depreciation, USA oil reserves release, Russian and European banks downgrading, I decided to create a Dashboard for near real-time leading indicators, such as “Google Searches”, News, Business&News Websites usage, FT Markets so that you and I may react quickly on world events.
These Leading Indicators will be related to the forthcoming Macroeconomic, Statistical and Social Data. They also provide valuable information from themselves as unstructured data. There are a lot of surprising events recently, such as the European Sanctions in Russia, The decline of oil prices with USA intervention, The decline in Russian economy expected exports and currency shock for CEE and Europe from the RUB. The expected credit problems in the China economy with world slowdown, capacity utilization. So I think there will be quite dynamic events for the World, Europe, CEE and Bulgaria.
I hold a Master in Economics from CEU, Budapest. I have also various Certificates from courses from Coursera, as well as MIT OCW courses. I am a specialist in Data Science (with distinction), MBA, Marketing Analytics (CRM, Competitive Strategies, Marketing Management), I also took a lot of courses in Big Data Analytics (Networks, Probabilistic Graphical Networks ...) as well as World Economy Trends. I worked so far for EU Programs in Ministry of Finance of Bulgaria, the research of the Bulgarian Central Bank, Telecommunication Industry. I will reveal further my motivation for presenting the data.
The Data are based on Trading Economics, Google Trends, Similar Web websites and may be susceptible to Man-in-the-Middle attack (falsified for your IP data) or sometimes their mistakes for which I cannot take responsibility. So you should always verify from several other sources your insights. I will not be always capable to follow the changes in their sources, so please open the graph in new Tab for more data. Some graphs for regions are empty, as I use consistent templates and there are no available data for all regions.
