Examples of REVISION in a Sentence
The upward revision to Q1 GDP displayed in the revised estimate is cold comfort given that output is plummeting this quarter.
This upward revision implies slightly stronger momentum for services consumption heading into the fourth quarter, but is of little significance to our forecast for fourth-quarter GDP growth.
