macrotrends

Macrotrends is an online data and charting platform that provides historical financial and economic data. It offers interactive charts, trend analyses, and downloadable data to facilitate research and analysis.

The site covers a broad set of time series, including stock prices, market capitalization, company financial metrics (such as revenue and earnings), macroeconomic indicators (such as GDP, inflation, and unemployment), as well as commodities and currency exchange rates. For many series, Macrotrends presents data that span multiple decades, enabling long-term comparisons and trend observation.

Data on Macrotrends are aggregated from various public sources and are presented alongside visual charts that users can customize. The platform typically includes references or links to primary data sources, and it notes that accuracy and completeness depend on the original publishers. Macrotrends does not position itself as a primary data issuer or as a broker or financial advisor.

Features and usage include the ability to view interactive charts, compare multiple series, adjust time ranges, and download data in CSV format. The resource is commonly used by students, researchers, and investors for quick reference, historical context, and visual analysis of trends across markets and companies.

Limitations should be noted: while the site provides useful historical context, it should not be treated as a sole source for precise figures. For authoritative values, users should consult the original data releases or filings, and be aware that some series may have gaps or delays.
