Macroeconomics is the economics sub-field of study that considers aggregate behavior, and the study of the sum of individual economic decisions. This is in contrast to microeconomics which is the study of the economic behaviour of individual consumers, firms, and industries.\n\nMacroeconomics can be used to analyze how best to influence government policy goals such as economic growth, price stability, full employment and the attainment of a sustainable balance of payments.\n\nMicroeconomics (literally, very small economics) is a social science which involves study of the economic distribution of production and income among individual consumers, firms, and industries. (Contrast macroeconomics.) It considers individuals both as suppliers of labour and capital and as the ultimate consumers of the final product. It analyzes firms both as suppliers of products and as consumers of labour and capital. It is the study of the behavior of individuals and firms that are using scarce resources. Scarcity refers to the fact that none of us as individuals or companies, can "have it all"—unlimited land, capital, labour, etc.\n\nOne of the goals of the field of microeconomics is to analyze mechanisms and market forces that establish relative prices amongst goods and services and allocate society's resources amongst their many alternative uses.

I'm in a economics class too, and they are things that are used to predict if the economy is going into a period of contraction or growth. Some examples are the stock market, the real GDP, prices, and sales.

The so called corporate downsizing is a normal cycle for some businesses.  As with most things as corporations evolve they pick up extra assets that at some point have to be done away with or the corporation will not be able to compete.  These parts of corporations that are done away with are not lost, often they are picked up by other companies which restructure them into viable, productive entities that can compete with other companies.  Even those assets that are salvaged out are not lost in that the funds are reinvested into the primary corporation to make the better at competing.  These efforts make the jobs remaining better and more solid.

Structural unemployment occurs when there are unemployed workers and job vacancies at the same time. The workers do not have the skills to fill the job vacancies. This type of unemployment is unaffected by business cycles. The cure is education and training.
