Real GDP (Gross Domestic Product) measures the total value of all goods and services produced in a country, adjusted for inflation. By stripping out the impact of rising prices, it offers a clearer view of actual economic growth than nominal GDP, which can be distorted by inflation.

In Q1 2025, real GDP in the United States contracted at a 0.2% annualized rate—its first decline since Q1 2022, when it fell by 1.0% annualized.
