The US economy experienced growth at an annualized rate of 3.4 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2023, surpassing the 3.2 per cent estimates made a month earlier. This increase was primarily due to higher estimates of consumer spending and investment.
Despite initial concerns of a recession, the US economy has defied expectations, prompting optimism that it is heading towards a “soft landing” where inflation decreases without causing a harmful recession. The outlook for the economy appears promising as it continues to show signs of stability and growth.
The US Commerce Department released its latest report and found that throughout the year 2023, the US economy grew at a rate of 2.5 per cent, reflecting an improvement from the 1.9 per cent growth seen in 2022. Now, in the current January-March quarter, the economy is projected to be growing at a slower but still respectable rate of 2.1 per cent, as per a forecasting model released by the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta.
One significant factor contributing to this growth was higher estimates of consumer spending and non-residential fixed investment. However, these positive factors were partly offset by a downward revision in private inventory investment. Despite this small setback, overall economic indicators are still showing strong signs of stability and growth.
