Business Forward is committed to keeping you informed about important economic data and what it means for you and your business. That's why we're revamping our series on economic indicators to include a key figure - Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

Each quarter, the U.S. Department of Commerce releases an estimate of GDP, the measure of all economic output produced in the United States. Many business leaders and economists use GDP to assess the current state of the economy and forecast future consumer demand, revenue, earnings, and a range of other market metrics.

We're hosting a call this Friday on GDP with two great experts.
