Why is it feminine?
Economía is feminine because it derives from Latin "oeconomia," which came from Greek "oikonomia" (οἰκονομία)—a compound of "oikos" (house) and "nomos" (law/management)—and Latin feminine nouns ending in "-ia" remained feminine when adopted into Spanish. Like most Spanish nouns ending in "-ía," it retained the feminine gender from its Latin ancestor.
