Answer:

The three most important economic indicators are gross domestic product (including GDP per capita, consumer spending, investment, etc.), employment indicators (total employment and unemployment rate) and inflation rate.

There are other economic indicators that are also frequently used like poverty level, life expectancy, foreign trade balance, central bank minutes, etc.
