Build back badly?

The Atlanta Fed GDPNow model estimate for real Q# GDP growth (seasonally adjusted annual rate) is 2.3 percent on October 1, down from 3.2 percent on September 27. After recent releases from the US Bureau of Economic Analysis, the US Census Bureau, and the Institute for Supply Management, the nowcasts of third-quarter real personal consumption expenditures growth and third-quarter real gross private domestic investment growth decreased from 2.2 percent and 15.9 percent, respectively, to 1.4 percent and 12.9 percent, respectively, while the nowcast of the contribution of the change in real net exports to third-quarter real GDP growth increased from -1.36 percentage points to -1.27 percentage points.

Here is the breakdown.

Its a slow down. The massive Federal stimulus seems to be wearing-out faster than expected.

“ Build back badly?”

Only if you look at it from a US citizen’s point of view, and this pretend administration clearly does not work for the US

Looks like we need more stimulus money. That will solve everything...for awhile.

If GDP was adjusted for debt and inflation, it’s negative.

The Fed is manufacturing an excuse to not raise interest rates

They know full well the impact raising rates would have on Government debt. Therefore they will do everything except their job.

So get ready for stagflation cause here it comes. Biden is Jimmy Carter 2.0

“More than 2.9 million people have signed a Change.org petition calling for the federal government to provide $2,000 in monthly stimulus payments. The petition, which is one of the more popular stimulus petitions on the website, is called “$2000/month to every American #moneyforthepeople #covid19″ and is directed at Congress.”

2.3% (Down From 6.1% On July 30th)

well, one really should adjust for inflation. 6.1% growth with 6% inflation is 0.1% growth.

And 2.3% growth with 6% inflation is not growth but its opposite.

You have to demolish a thing before you can build back.

Everything the controlling leftist do ends in punitive disaster for the people. If some don’t get it by now, they never will.
