The Tracker (yo2y) provides estimates of weekly GDP relative to the same week in the two years before (the 104-week difference). It covers the whole period from early 2020 to today.
The Tracker (counterfactual) is an estimate of the percent difference between weekly GDP and the pre-crisis GDP trend. It is available until the end of 2021. The pre-crisis GDP trajectory is proxied by OECD forecasts made in November 2019.

This dataset includes yearly information on the Productive Capacities Index (PCI) for multiple countries, published by United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). The Productive Capacities Index (PCI) is built upon UNCTAD's framework to measure a country's ability to produce goods and services and foster growth through three pillars: productive resources, entrepreneurial capabilities, and production linkages. These pillars are further divided into eight categories including natural and human capital, energy, institutions, private sector, structural change, transport, and information technologies. The PCI is a composite index summarizing these categories into a single indicator.For further information about the methodology please refer to: https://unctadstat.unctad.org/datacentre/reportInfo/US.PCI
