Q2 GDP: 3.4%
From the BEA: Gross Domestic Product
As expected, PCE (personal consumption expenditures) growth slowed sharply to 1.3% in the second quarter.
The bright spots in the report: Net exports of goods and services contributed 1.18%, and government spending contributed 0.82%, and non-residential fixed investment 0.83%.
Investment in non-residential structures increased at a 22% annualized rate!
I'll post on fixed investments later today.
