It's 2.9% after the numbers were adjusted as data came in. That is the same as Obama did in 2015 in spite of trillions of dollars handed out to the rich that the GOP promised would push up GDP to new highs.
WHAT? You mean Trickle Down Economics doesn't work?! Who knew?
2018 GDP growth by quarter:
Q1- 2.2%
Q2- 4.2%
Q3- 3.4%
Q4- 2.6%
Average- 3.1%
Good year for the US!
That's as good as it'll ever get.
We don't have a lot of data on advanced 4th Level Economies, but the data so far, over the last 20 years, indicates 5%-8% growth is out of the question, and 3% is normal.
Not sure what your trying to say. It was a great year for growth, business is doing very well. Growth averaged 3.1% over 2018, 2.9% annual accounting for inflation. Not sure how that can be spun negatively, it took Trump 2 years to match Obama’s best year, in the 10th year of an economic recovery with the fed raising rates and reducing the balance sheet. Obama’s last year? 1.6%
California continues to be the most significant contributor to the growth.
