Dear Ministerial Services Inbox [TSY],
Thanks for your helpful response. However, I have been unable to find the data to reproduce results from the links you provided. I want to add the period from 2018 to 2023 to cover the full period of QE and at least one prior, non-QE year.
Can you please provide me with this data or clarify where I can locate or calculate it from the links you sent.
Yours sincerely,
Martin Taylor
