Wait a minute, “the Commerce Dept,” Trump’s Commerce Dept, didn’t you notice what happened to the last person who released figures that didn’t match the narrative that Donnie was echoing?Revised numbers show that the US economic juggernaut grew at a stronger, but still sustainable 3.3% rate in Q2 2025, with inflation staying basically level..."the headline PCE price index edged lower to 2%, in line with the Fed’s inflation goal."
( In Central Indiana ) :Eggs = 2.51 per dozen grade A large; mile = 2.5 per gallon of 2%; chicken= $ 1.99-2.99 per lb. bnlss, skinless breasts; tomatoes= .99 per pound d of Romas; bacon= $ 3.99 [per pound; pork loin = $ 1.99 per pound....beef still high...
How sweet it is ! The economy just won't give the 19%ers the recession they have been begging for....
U.S. economy expanded 3.3% in Q2, with growth even stronger than initially thought
- Gross domestic product rose at a 3.3% annualized pace in the April-through-June period, the Commerce Department reported.
- The reading was better than the initial 3.0% estimate as well as the 3.1% Dow Jones consensus forecast, as consumer spending helped push the number higher.
The U.S. economy grew at a pace that was faster than expected in the second quarter as consumers and businesses held up against tariff volatility.
Gross domestic product rose at a 3.3% annualized pace in the April-through-June period, the Commerce Department reported Thursday in its second estimate for the most encompassing measure of economic activity. The reading was better than an initial 3.0% estimate as well as the 3.1% Dow Jones consensus forecas
Consumer spending, which rose by 1.6% compared with an initial 1.4% estimate, helped push the number higher.
Importantly, a measure called final sales to private domestic purchasers jumped 1.9%, up from the previous figure of 1.2%. Federal Reserve officials watch that metric closely as an indication of demand and sales that focuses on activity within U.S. borders, an especially important measure considering the uncertain impact of President Donald Trump’s tariffs.
The GDP number also reflected the unusual impact of the tariffs as they related to trade numbers.
Imports, which subtract from GDP, tumbled 29.8% in the quarter after companies stockpiled ahead of Trump’s April 2 “liberation day” announcement. The figure was a bit less than the previous estimate of 30.3%.
At the same time, exports, which add to GDP, fell by 1.3%, compared with the previous estimate of -1.8%. Taking the figures together, net exports added nearly 5 percentage points to the Q2 total.
~ Inflation-related estimates were little changed from the initial reading. Core personal consumption expenditures prices, which exclude the volatile food and energy categories, rose 2.5%, unchanged from the prior figure, while the headline PCE price index edged lower to 2%, in line with the Fed’s inflation goal.
Forget it, going forward, during Trump’s reign, any reports on anything coming from his regime are most likely tainted, just like their Messiah, they lie, have to if they want to keep their jobs
Typical leftist dumb fuck. The same dumb fucks who bought all the gaslighting and lies of the last administration now project onto Trumps.
You really are too stupid for words arsecheese. Cue the whiny crying.....
Another leftist desperate to cling to its delusions.
I noticed what happened when phony numbers were exposed.
Your desperation is hilarious.
You and your "experts" = wrong again.

Why don't you take a little time and read the news once in awhile?
You would learn something for a change.
I went to Value and bought a scrub brush to replace one I bought back in FEB.
In Feb the same brush was $5 today it was $9.99 plus tax.
almost a 100% increase.
A lot of you MAGA morons laugh when I point out a 42 oz can of coffee was $9.99 in Jan and is now $19,99 a 100% increase.
And NOT all of Trumps tariffs have worked through the supply chain YET so NOT everything has gone up YET but it is coming.
And Today he took off the exemption he had on a lot of things so even more stuff is going to go up.
You really need to stop watching FOX and get out in the real world and PAY ATTENTION to what is going on.

and hopefully a lot more young kids will go into skilled trades.
Right now we need Electricians. Plumbers . Carpenters . Tool and die makers.
All those jobs are really high paying jobs and wages and benefits are going up.
If you know a kid that has some brains try to get them to go into a skilled trade and if they do they should be thanking you in the future.

The HS my daughter attends provides that. College isn't just about intellect however.
Their smarmy ass' would not survive in a world without the rest of us.
Your absence, as well as your arrogance, would not be missed one fucking bit.
Until PHD holders couldn't change a light fixture or make their car start. Or want to build a house. Not that you have a PHD. You're the uniquely useless no skills and no education parasite.
My degree got me a pretty fucking successful career. And the benefits to society of my work will long outlast your fucking light fixture or car.
LMAO. The graveyard is full of people who thought the world couldn't live with out them. Self aggrandized shit stain is what you are.
Nope, I never said that, illiterate fuck. I said the results of my work will long outlast your fucking car.
Is 8th grade as far as you got?
The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) released its second estimate of Q2 GDP, which showed the economy grew at a 3.3% rate. That figure was faster than the 3.1% estimate of economists polled by LSEG, and above the Commerce Department's initial Q2 GDP estimate of 3%.
According to the BEA, the revision stemmed primarily from upward revisions to investment and consumer spending that were partly offset by downward revisions to government spending as well as an upward revision to imports.
