The UK's Office for National Statistics will publish the latest monthly GDP reading at 7:00 UK time on Thursday 15th February.
This is the month-on-month figure - released around six weeks after the end of the month that is being measured (December in this case).
Will this reading show positive growth?
Resolution notes:
A reading of 0.0% resolves to NO
This market resolves based on the reading published on the day, future revisions are not relevant

The big news this morning is that GDP dipped for the quarter, meaning that the UK is now technically in recession.

But ONS figures also show that we shrank by 0.1% in December meaning that this market resolves to NO.
Will next month's figure show growth?
@RanaG I wanted to add news links once they updated to include the GDP figure and also add next month's market before I resolved this one:
