The rate represents a slowdown from previous quarters. In the third quarter, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.multihousingnews.com\/post\/1004152516\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">real GDP increased 3.5 percent<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The revised GDP estimate\u2014the BEA always releases three\u2014is based on more complete source data than were available for the advance estimate in January. Even so, in the advance estimate, the increase in real GDP was also 1.9 percent.<\/p>\n<p>With the second estimate for the fourth quarter, the general picture of economic growth remains the same, with some adjustments. The increase in personal consumption expenditures was larger than previously thought, and increases in state and local government spending and in nonresidential fixed investment were smaller.<\/p>\n<p>Positive contributions to real GDP in the fourth quarter came from personal consumption expenditures (people spending their money), private inventory investment (businesses spending theirs), residential fixed investment, nonresidential fixed investment, and state and local government spending. Negative contributions to fourth-quarter real GDP reflected a downturn in exports, an acceleration in imports, and a downturn in federal government spending.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bureau of Economic Analysis&#8217; second estimate for fourth-quarter U.S. GDP still points to a tepid 1.9 percent increase, following a nice boost in the previous quarter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1269,"featured_media":1004167874,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23891,21742],"tags":[32931,32814],"class_list":["post-1004167867","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-national","category-latest","tag-bureau-of-economic-analysis","tag-gdp"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) -
