U.S. GDP Surges 2.8% in Q2, Outpacing Expectations as Inflation Eases The U.S. economy grew at an annualized rate of 2.8% in the second quarter, surpassing economists’ expectations of 2% and improving from the first quarter’s revised 1.4% growth. This stronger-than-anticipated performance, coupled with easing inflation, suggests a robust economic outlook for the period. However, economists like Oren Klachkin of Nationwide predict this may be the best quarter of the year, with future growth likely to cool as consumer spending and business investments slow. The data has prompted speculation on when the Federal Reserve might start cutting interest rates, with markets anticipating a possible rate cut by the end of September. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Druckenmiller Makes Bet on Gold Miners READ MORE US Dollar Dominates Amid Global Economic Shifts READ MORE McDonald’s $5 Meal Deal Highlights Inflation Battle READ MORE Are Gold ETFs Backed By Physical Gold?
