Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the total monetary value of all finished goods and services produced within a country's borders during a specific period. It is the primary measure of a nation's economic output and a key driver of currency valuations and central bank policy.
Example
“The U.S. reported quarterly GDP growth of 2.8%, beating the consensus forecast of 2.0%, which strengthened the dollar and pushed Treasury yields higher.”
