Por qué importa
GDP's headline hides its drivers. Household spending is usually the largest part of demand; investment is the most cyclical and tells you about firms' confidence; productivity and labour costs decide whether growth can continue without inflation.
Cómo se calcula
Statistics Canada estimates each component from surveys, tax and trade data, after inflation where noted ("real").
Qué significan los cambios
- Strong spending with weak income growth cannot last: watch the savings rate.
- Productivity growth lets wages rise without pushing up prices; unit labour costs show the opposite.
Mayor de lo esperado: A stronger figure than expected points to a healthier economy: it usually supports the Canadian dollar and local stocks, and can push bond yields up.
Menor de lo esperado: A weaker figure than expected points to slowing activity: the Canadian dollar tends to soften and markets price in lower rates.
Una breve historia
The components follow the expenditure approach to GDP set out by Keynesian economics in the 1930s and standardised in the System of National Accounts.
