US DATA: Census Bureau Releases Updated Release Dates

     WASHINGTON (MNI) - Please see below an update from the Census Bureau

Wednesday regarding the new release dates for data backlogged due to the

shutdown. These dates will appear in MNI's calendars going forward. After these

updated dates, the schedule for the remainder of the year should reflect

previously announced dates.

     The U.S. Census Bureau today added January-March 2019 data releases to its

revised economic indicator release schedule. The updated schedule addresses

economic indicator releases that were delayed due to the recent lapse in federal

funding and was prepared in coordination with other agencies and the Office of

Management and Budget. With these additions and barring unanticipated further

changes, the Census Bureau is now fullyl caught up on its economic indicator

release schedule for 2019.

     The following are revised dates for economic indicator data through the

January-March statistical months.
