U.S. GDP Growth Disappoints
U.S. economic growth for the first quarter fell far short of forecasts.
Inflation-adjusted gross domestic product grew at an annualized rate of 1.6% in the first quarter, according to an initial estimate the Bureau of Economic Analysis released today. That was below the 2.2% growth that economists surveyed by FactSet had expected.
The slowdown largely reflected a pullback of growth in consumer spending, as well as exports and outlays by the government.
