Section 1: US Gross Domestic Product
Before Entering the discussion of US GDP, it should be noted that the most recent release from the United States Bureau of Economic Analysis states that in 4Q2024, the growth rate for US GDP is 2.4% from the previous quarter. While this is below the average GDP growth rate for the past ten years (minus 2020 and 2021) of 2.5%, it is remarkably positive when compared to forecasts for GDP for the coming quarter and time following it.
