The latest economic growth figures are out and they show the economy expanded in the second quarter BUT there's a caveat - they only take in a TINY bit of the latest lockdowns. In this episode we dive into how the data works, what to expect from the data next time around, and what IS a 'technical recession' and why we should throw the description in the bin.
Su-Lin Ong, Chief Economist at RBC Capital Markets and Stephen Halmarick, Chief Economist at the Commonwealth Bank, join Gillian to expand her brain, and yours.
