The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a measure of the value of all products and services produced in a country over a determined period of time that indicates the economic status and health of the country. When calculating the GDP we need to add the consumer spending, business investment/spending, government spending and the exports spending minus the imports. So when imports (products produced elsewhere, but sold in the country) increase faster than exports, the GDP goes down.
