The communist usurper’s best year was 2.9% growth. I’m still not tired of winning, not under a real President of the United States.

"The GDPNow model estimate for real GDP growth (seasonally adjusted annual rate) in the second quarter of 2018 is 4.5 percent on June 27, down from 4.7 percent on June 19," the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta said in its latest GDPNow report.

If it comes in at 3.5%, it will be wonderful news, 4.5% will blow the doors off of the demonRATS hope for a blue wave.

That's OK

Q3 to be 4.7%

Q4 at 5%

Enjoy the ride.

This is only possible due to Obama policies - Valerie Jarret.

Lower inflation expectations probably due to tariff concerns. Whether intentional or not, Trump’s tariff threats are keeping economy from growing too fast too soon.

But...
But....
Obama said we would never see 3% growth again our lifetimes! The media told me that anyone who dared to think otherwise was an EVIL RACIST!

HOW CAN THIS BE??

4.5%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The GDPNow tool that the Atlanta Fed uses is a snapshot in time. It's the forecast for growth given the conditions on a certain date and time. Wait a week or so and the forecast could be higher or the forecast could be lower. It all depends on what happens to the variable they use in their calculation.

Makes me nostalgic for the, ‘Halcyon 0bama Days’ of 1% growth which we were told would be ‘The New Normal.’

NOT!

Best. Election. Ever. EVER! MAGA! :)

This Atlanta Fed seems like it is never right and they adjust their prediction seemingly every other week. What are they the equivalent of the 7th Circus Court?

At one point during the first quarter I believe GDPNow forecast a growth rate over 5.5%. Actual growth for the quarter was around 2.5%. Impressive, but considerably lower than the highest prediction.
