Analysis: US Second Quarter Data Severely Distorted, Weak Economic Growth Expected to Continue in the Second Half of the Year
BlockBeats News, July 30th: An institutional analysis stated that, similar to the first quarter, the major GDP data in the second quarter was heavily distorted by trade. Economists urged a focus on final sales to domestic private buyers, which is seen by economists and policymakers as a key indicator of U.S. economic growth. This indicator, following a 1.9% growth in the first quarter, grew 1.2% in the second quarter.
This was the slowest domestic demand growth since the fourth quarter of 2022. Additionally, economists are expecting weak economic growth in the second half of the year. Despite the White House announcing a series of trade agreements, economists stated that the actual tariff rate in the U.S. remains one of the highest levels since the 1930s, noting that about 60% of U.S. imports are still unaffected by agreements.
