About Datastream

Description

Datastream is a global financial and macroeconomic time-series database, providing data on equities, stock market indices, currencies, company fundamentals, fixed income securities and key economic indicators for 175 countries and 60 markets. Equity data from IPO to present is updated daily. Macroeconomic time series are monthly, quarterly and annual - with up to 60 years of coverage.

 

Datastream Access

The Datastream platform was discontinued by Thomson Reuters in September, 2021. Currently, you can access the data through the Refinitiv platform on a single terminal in the Business/SPEA Library. There is no longer a Datastream For Office (DFO) plugin for Excel.

 To login ask someone at the reference desk to take you to the machine and they will login for you.

This database is available only to IU Bloomington students and staff; no guest users.
