GDP of the United States

The Gross domestic product of the United States is the amount of goods and services produced in a year by the United States.

The increase (and during recessions the decrease) of GDP from year to year measures economic growth (or decline) in the form of goods and services produced. GDP figures generally become more accurate over the years as more precise accounting is employed. The latest GDP revisions to measurements for recent years are from July 2017.
