Other minor updates Customer ReviewsGreat Ecomony App (5 stars)This App has multiple applications to various users such as: business owners, investors, retirees, and college students just to name a few. It is one of best Apps in iTunes because it has good and predictive information. Others Apps are plain useless and worthless. Not this one !!!! A must-have for economic nerds (5 stars) Economic nerds like me will love this. My only complaint is that I want more economic series added but I suspect this will come in time. Great source at your finger tips where ever you are (5 stars) This a great source of data readily available where ever your iPhone goes. Great upgrades with graphical data transformations, state data, and recent additions of personal n disposable income. Very nice to compare data sets to test theories that might come to mind.
