The study of an economy in its largest sense. That is, macroeconomics studies gross domestic product, unemployment, inflation, and similar matters.

It is useful in helping determine the aggregate effect of certain policies on an economy as a whole. See also: Microeconomics.

Investopedia explains Macroeconomics

Macroeconomics is focused on the overall movements and trends in the economy, whereas its counterpart—microeconomics—focuses on factors that affect the decisions made by firms and individuals. Macro and micro factors often influence each other; for example, the current level of unemployment in the economy as a whole will affect the supply of available workers from which a company can select.
