We identify two major changes in the dynamics of the federal funds rate in the 1990s. We model the desired rate in a two-regime setting, one when the Fed makes no change and the other when the Fed is moving the desired rate to a new level. We find that the 1990s saw a longer duration in the no-change regime as well as smaller changes in the other regime. The smaller changes were neither due to a less aggressive Fed nor due to lower volatility of the fundamentals. In fact, the Fed responded more aggressively to changes in fundamentals in the 1990s.

County Cancer Death Rates

County-level cancer death rates with related variables

By Noah Rippner [source]

About this dataset

This dataset provides comprehensive information on county-level cancer death and incidence rates, as well as various related variables. It includes data on age-adjusted death rates, average deaths per year, recent trends in cancer death rates, recent 5-year trends in death rates, and average annual counts of cancer deaths or incidence. The dataset also includes the federal information processing standards (FIPS) codes for each county.

Additionally, the dataset indicates whether each county met the objective of a targeted death rate of 45.5. The recent trend in cancer deaths or incidence is also captured for analysis purposes.

The purpose of the death.csv file within this dataset is to offer detailed information specifically concerning county-level cancer death rates and related variables. On the other hand, the incd.csv file contains data on county-level cancer incidence rates and additional relevant variables.

To provide more context and understanding about the included data points, there is a separate file named cancer_data_notes.csv. This file serves to provide informative notes and explanations regarding the various aspects of the cancer data used in this dataset.

Please note that this particular description provides an overview for a linear regression walkthrough using this dataset based on Python programming language. It highlights how to source and import the data properly before moving into data preparation steps such as exploratory analysis. The walkthrough further covers model selection and important model diagnostics measures.

It's essential to bear in mind that this example serves as an initial attempt at creating a multivariate Ordinary Least Squares regression model using these datasets from various sources like cancer.gov along with US Census American Community Survey data. This baseline model allows easy comparisons with future iterations intended for improvements or refinements.

Important columns found within this extensively documented Kaggle dataset include County names along with their corresponding FIPS codes—a standardized coding system by Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS). Moreover,Met Objective of 45.5? (1) column denotes whether a specific county achieved the targeted objective of a death rate of 45.5 or not.

Overall, this dataset aims to offer valuable insights into county-level cancer death and incidence rates across various regions, providing policymakers, researchers, and healthcare professionals with essential information for analysis and decision-making purposes

How to use the dataset

• Familiarize Yourself with the Columns:

  • County: The name of the county.
  • FIPS: The Federal Information Processing Standards code for the county.
  • Met Objective of 45.5? (1): Indicates whether the county met the objective of a death rate of 45.5 (Boolean).
  • Age-Adjusted Death Rate: The age-adjusted death rate for cancer in the county.
  • Average Deaths per Year: The average number of deaths per year due to cancer in the county.
  • Recent Trend (2): The recent trend in cancer death rates/incidence in the county.
  • Recent 5-Year Trend (2) in Death Rates: The recent 5-year trend in cancer death rates/incidence in the county.
  • Average Annual Count: The average annual count of cancer deaths/incidence in the county.

• Determine Counties Meeting Objective: Use this dataset to identify counties that have met or not met an objective death rate threshold of 45.5%. Look for entries where Met Objective of 45.5? (1) is marked as True or False.

• Analyze Age-Adjusted Death Rates: Study and compare age-adjusted death rates across different counties using Age-Adjusted Death Rate values provided as floats.

• Explore Average Deaths per Year: Examine and compare average annual counts and trends regarding deaths caused by cancer, using Average Deaths per Year as a reference point.

• Investigate Recent Trends: Assess recent trends related to cancer deaths or incidence by analyzing data under columns such as Recent Trend, Recent Trend (2), and Recent 5-Year Trend (2) in Death Rates. These columns provide information on how cancer death rates/incidence have changed over time.

• Compare Counties: Utilize this dataset to compare counties based on their cancer death rates and related variables. Identify counties with lower or higher average annual counts, age-adjusted death rates, or recent trends to analyze and understand the factors contributing ...

The Politbarometer has been conducted since 1977 on an almost monthly basis by the Research Group for Elections (Forschungsgruppe Wahlen) for the Second German Television (ZDF). Since 1990, this database has also been available for the new German states. The survey focuses on the opinions and attitudes of the voting population in the Federal Republic on current political topics, parties, politicians, and voting behavior. From 1990 to 1995 and from 1999 onward, the Politbarometer surveys were conducted separately in the eastern and western federal states (Politbarometer East and Politbarometer West). The separate monthly surveys of a year are integrated into a cumulative data set that includes all surveys of a year and all variables of the respective year. The Politbarometer short surveys, collected with varying frequency throughout the year, are integrated into the annual cumulation starting from 2003.

Brazil Broad Money Supply: M3: Operation Committed with Federal Securities data was reported at 113,074.640 BRL mn in Jun 2018. This records an increase from the previous number of 103,266.242 BRL mn for May 2018. Brazil Broad Money Supply: M3: Operation Committed with Federal Securities data is updated monthly, averaging 29,866.033 BRL mn from Jul 1994 (Median) to Jun 2018, with 288 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 218,686.067 BRL mn in Mar 2016 and a record low of 0.000 BRL mn in Jul 1999. Brazil Broad Money Supply: M3: Operation Committed with Federal Securities data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by Central Bank of Brazil. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Brazil – Table BR.KAA018: Money Supply. Brazilian Central Bank has made changes in methodology of Financial System Credit Data in February of 2013 after 13 years following the same methodology. These changes are necessary face the expansion of credit, favored by the improvement of the indicators of employment and income, continuous and sharp reduction of the interest rates and by important institutional advances. It is essential the availability of new information, in particular, which allows more detailed monitoring of credit arrangements with targeted resources, especially real estate financing, whose dynamism has contributed to reducing the housing deficit in the country. The main change includes coverage of data on concessions, interest rates, terms and default rates that were extended to the segment of directed credit and also became necessary to further detailing the statistical framework, to enable identification of the terms most relevant as well as reduce the relative share of loans not classified - embedded in 'other receivables'. The Money Supply statistics were revised in August 2018, incorporating methodological updates to increase compliance with international standards and consistency with other sets of macroeconomic statistics. The revision consists the inclusion of cooperatives among the institutions that meke up the money issuing system, resulting in M1 expansion, and the exclusion of non-residents assets, impacting mainly on M4.

Monetary policy, the yield curve and the private sector behaviour of the US economy are modelled as a time-varying structural vector autoregression. The monetary policy shocks of the early 1980s explain a large portion of the persistence of inflation and the level of the term structure. Changes in inflation expectations implied by the yield curve account for the persistence of the federal funds rate. Failures of the expectations hypothesis are rare, and coincided with the credibility building of Paul Volcker's Fed tenure at the beginning of the 1980s and the sequence of consecutive policy rate cuts around the time of the early 1990s recession.
