Federal Reserve now predicts Q2 Gdp growth of 3.8%

[Blisterfinger]

Yeah, he did. Your mental illness does not get to change the facts, simp.

You've been fooled

 

[ThisIsMe]

There will be no significant investment in the U.S. until Trump completely drops his tariffs and at least pretends to be a sane person.

No smart businesses are going to invest in this country with an erratic President like Trump. There is too much chaos, too much uncertainty. It's going to be 4 years of economic misery.

It's that simple.

Translation: other countries won't invest in america until it resumes being bent over and taking it up the ass

You mean this country is taking it up the ass from Trump's derangement and idiocy.

Why do you pretend that Trump is sane? It's really pathetic.

We took it in the ass because of you Democrats. Obviously the way you like to take it. Now we're fixing that MAGA

No, im talking about going back to status quo. China can continue to fuck over our country by leaving their tariffs on our goods, while Americans actually fight to help the Chinese by trying to get america to drop their tariffs on China.

I guess we just go back to how it always has been. I'm sure that will make the CCP very happy.

Not really seeing anything like that at the moment.

your mommy’s limit on your hot pocket intake has nothing to do with the reality of the economy. But rest assured she is paying less to feed you than she was during the last four years.

Trump's tariffs and Big Beautiful Bill will wreck the country....and your simple MAGA gomer ass will somehow try to blame Democrats.

Trump is fucking over this country a lot more than China is.

China isn't kicking millions of Americans off Medicaid. The imbecile, mentally ill Trump is doing that.

Trump is kicking illegals off of Medicaid and getting rid of Fraud and Abuse. Get used to it

Nothing to clean up, mentally ill simp.

48 straight months of job growth under Biden.

Record stock market under Biden.

And Trump is about to fuck up all that.

More mentally ill idiocy.

Millions of MAGA voters are about to lose their Medicaid, gomer.

 

[Delldude]

Trump is smart enough to back down when he needs to, but China is still cheating and I don't know how Trump can fix it.

Did He back down or give China an off ramp?

 

[Delldude]

Give us your lefty resume......

The illegal alien voters belong to the Democrats dumbass.

 

[AntonToo]

Well, so much for that doom and gloom talk. The economy is on fire...

Yea, imagine what happens when you do a 180 and DON'T implement insane tariffs?

 

[kyzr]

Trump backed down. The tariff went from 145% to 30%.

 

[Mac1958]

Results adjust every month/qtr, with all presidents...A prelim first, then with all aspects and numbers calculated, the adjusted final results.

And there's another thing about the numbers and markets -- expectations. So let's say the figure in the upcoming report remains at 3.8%, but drops to 3.0% or 2.8% because of the tariffs in the next report. That still might be fine, because the expectation was that it would drop to 2.0%, for example.

So that might be good enough news for businesses to loosen up, invest and off we go. This stuff is completely unpredictable. So you have to get past the raw data, the expectations, plus guidance/projections on the future from business, and any adjustments. I learned that a long time ago.

Then we see if the public goes shopping.

Inflation is at 2.3% and dropping, but tariffs may affect it going forward.
Still, the Fed expects two rate cuts in 2025, and more in 2026 and 2027.
