Government Spending Boosting GDP
“Davidson” submits:
Economic activity always is a composite of moving parts. Currently it appears we have more moving parts than usual. Indeed so! We have multiple policy shifts in the works with the potential for beneficial outcomes. But, if these occur, it will be likely a couple of years before the final outcomes are known with the path uncertain.

Private GDP Continues It’s Rise
GDP came in at 3% today despite two hurricanes……..that means we ought to see Q4 above 3% also as reconstruction begins. It’ll be the first time we’ve seen 3% plus growth for three consecutive quarters since before the financial crisis.
We’ve been saying this here for the last 4 years as markets have continued to climb higher….
How can we have a record number of $SPY companies beating sales estimates, record profits and other record economic indicators with an economy growing just over 2%?? Maybe, just maybe, it’s because things aren’t as mediocre as they seem?
“Davidson” submits:
How do we achieve record employment, record earnings, record Personal Income, record Retail Sales, near record Industrial Production and still think that our economy is weak? The economic data from the St. Louis Fed speaks volumes and underscores the strength of the current economic cycle. Then, why the continued gloom?
