Gross domestic product (GDP)

Gross domestic product (GDP) is the value of all goods and services produced within a country’s borders in a given period, usually quarterly and annually. It is the most commonly cited indicator of economic size and growth, and it’s the most closely followed by central banks, governments, and markets.

Two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth is often used as a conventional rule of thumb for identifying a recession. One of the key data points that influence the market is GDP, which directly feeds into interest rate decisions and fiscal policy thinking.

Example: The US reports negative GDP growth for a second consecutive quarter. The equity markets could come under pressure as the dollar may lose ground amid rate-cut expectations and yields decline due to Fed rate-cut pricing. A single number can influence traders across multiple asset classes at the same time – hence the reason GDP can be a significant market-moving indicator, and revisions can send markets significantly higher or lower than expected.

Gross national product

Gross national product measures the total value of goods and services produced by a country’s residents and businesses, regardless of where in the world that production takes place. The difference from GDP is the geographic boundary – GDP counts everything produced within a country’s borders, while GNP counts everything produced by a country’s nationals wherever they happen to be operating.

For most large economies the difference between the two is small. For countries with large overseas workforces or significant multinational corporate activity, it can be more meaningful. GNP has largely been replaced by Gross National Income as the preferred measure, but the term remains in use.

Example: Ireland’s GDP is significantly affected by the activities and profits of multinational corporations, including income associated with intellectual property and other assets held in Ireland, which may not reflect domestic economic activity alone. Its GNP adjusts for certain income flows between Ireland and the rest of the world and can therefore provide a different perspective on national economic activity. For Ireland, the gap between GDP and GNP is not a technical footnote – it’s a meaningful difference in how you read the economy.

Gross National Product (GNP)

GNP is the total value of goods and services produced by people and businesses in a country. These include the value of goods and services produced overseas but owned by residents or businesses in the country. The only distinction between GDP and GNP is geography: GDP includes the sum of all production within a country’s borders, while GNP includes the sum of all production by nationals of a country wherever they work.

For most large economies, the gap between the two is small. It can be very sizeable, particularly for countries with large overseas workforces or large multinational companies.

Example: The profits of multinational corporations are taxed in Ireland but manufactured in other countries – Ireland’s GDP is inflated by this. GNP takes some of this difference into account and can provide a different perspective on the earnings of the Irish people and economy. The difference between GDP and GNP is not a footnote in Ireland; it is an important difference that affects the way economists and policy makers interpret the performance of the domestic economy.

Growth stock

A stock of a company that is expected to grow at a rate faster than the overall market.

GTC

Good ‘Til Cancelled. An order type that remains in effect until it is filled or cancelled by the trader.

Guaranteed order

A guaranteed order is a trade instruction where the broker offers to execute the order at the specified price, subject to the applicable terms and conditions, regardless of gapping or slippage. In normal market conditions, stop losses and limit orders can be filled at worse prices than intended if the market moves through the specified level too quickly.

A guaranteed order can reduce this execution risk – the broker may fill the order at the stated price even if the market moves beyond it, subject to the terms of the guaranteed order. This certainty comes at a cost, usually in the form of a wider spread or an explicit premium.

Example: A trader holds a position over a weekend when a major geopolitical event could cause a sharp gap at the Monday open. They attach a guaranteed stop loss at their chosen level, paying the broker’s premium for the specified execution protection. Over the weekend, a shock announcement causes markets to gap lower. Their position closes at the guaranteed price, subject to the applicable terms and conditions, rather than the much lower level where the market actually opened. The premium they paid was the cost of the guaranteed execution feature.
