economic reports
GDP and unemployment
Economic reports are official publications containing data about financial and business conditions—employment figures, inflation rates, GDP growth, trade balances.
Governments and central banks release them on regular schedules, and markets often react sharply to the numbers: Stocks fell after the economic reports showed higher-than-expected unemployment.
Analysts parse these reports for signals about where the economy is heading.
