Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 4.2 percent in the second quarter of 2018 (table 1), according to the "third" estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the first quarter, real GDP increased 2.2 percent.

No. The new spin is that Obama is responsible for this economic miracle.

The Atlanta Fed is forecasting 4.4% for the third quarter. If we hit that number we will be growing at an annual rate of 3.6%. That means we will only need 1.2% in the fourth quarter to achieve an annual growth rate of 3.0% which will be extremely easy. Something all the experts said could never be done and Barack Obama never achieved.

GP, not near a computer so can’t confirm, but sounds like we need 2.8% on average in the second half for him to achieve 3.0% for the calendar year, right? If so, Obama’s “new normal” would officially be debunked and he will be the only US President never to achieve 3.0% GDP growth over the course of a calendar year.

Can someone explain to me why the Atlanta branch is always the benchmark? Genuinely curious.

Annual, full year, GDP is a YOY comparison of the four quarters, not the average of the 4 QOQ comparisons.

are you able to find an instance of even a single expert actually saying that meeting 3.0 for a single year could never be done?

how odd that would be, given that we saw 2.9 just a few years back

and for you and redstick: if we see 3.0 or even more this year, what is then the new-new normal iyo?

We all know there is no such things as "normal" in the economy.

There are always ups and downs.

And we all know the 3.0 thing was just an excuse Obama and his backers tried to sell folks.
