US strongly revises up Q2 GDP growth, inflation stable

The US Commerce Department on Wednesday revised upwards its estimate for second-quarter GDP growth in the world's largest economy, moving it up by 0.7 percentage points to 2.2 percent. "The contributors to the increase in real GDP in the second quarter were consumer spending, investment, and exports. Imports, which are a subtraction in the calculation of GDP, increased," the Bureau of Economic Analysis said in a statement. The new data will come as a boost to US President Donald Trump as his Republican Party heads into key midterm elections in November, with the state of the economy a key issue for voters. In terms of specific industries, the leading contributors to the increase were real estate, information, durable goods manufacturing, and finance and insurance, the BEA said. Decreases came from the transportation and retail trade, as well as from non-durable goods manufacturing. The BEA also revised upwards its estimate of GDP growth in the first quarter of this year by 0.4 percentage points to 2.5 percent. That change was primarily driven by upward revisions to consumer spending and services exports, the department said. In a separate release, the BEA said the US Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge stood at 3.4 percent year-on-year in August, unchanged from the month before after a revision to the July data. US households and businesses have been battered by years of high prices since the pandemic, with the Fed missing its long-term two-percent target for inflation since early 2021. Earlier this month, the Fed raised interest rates for the first time in three years to combat inflation. Wednesday's data was for the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, the Fed's targeted gauge. US inflation has been stoked by some of Trump's policies, including his imposition of widespread tariffs. His launching of the Iran war has sent global energy prices sky-rocketing, with US consumers paying an average of 50 percent more at the pump. Core PCE inflation, which strips out volatile energy and food prices, came in at 3.0 percent year-over-year. Markets are closely watching inflation data to gauge the Fed's next move. On Tuesday, an influential US central banker said there was no "urgency" to raise rates again, even as he indicated one more rate hike could be needed before the end of the year.

US stocks mixed on higher oil prices, bond yields

Wall Street stocks finished mixed on Wednesday after US data gave a reassuring picture on the economy while lofty bond yields weighed on sentiment. The US Commerce Department revised upwards its estimate for Q2 GDP growth in the world's largest economy by 0.7 percentage points to 2.2 percent, with analysts pointing to the artificial intelligence investment boom as supporting of growth. Another economic release showed the US Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge stood at 3.4 percent year-on-year in August, unchanged from the month before, while private payroll firm ADP showed better than expected job growth in September. But long-term bond yields remained elevated, adding to investor anxiety. Higher yields "likely reflect stronger economic growth expectations, partly driven by the AI boom, which is fuelling record capital spending and should deliver significant productivity gains over time," said CFRA Research's Arun Sundaram. "The question investors are asking is whether higher yields will break the equity market." Both the Dow and S&P 500 retreated, while the Nasdaq advanced. Meanwhile, Europe's main stock markets closed lower after France, Germany and Italy revealed that prices in their countries were surging, particularly at the petrol pumps. "This morning's economic releases from the eurozone have done little to improve the outlook, with a combination of rising inflation and weakening sentiment reinforcing concerns about stagflation," said Forex.com analyst Fawad Razaqzada. London's FTSE 100 also ended the day lower after an earlier rally following data showing the UK economy grew more than initially estimated in the second quarter. Oil prices advanced on Wednesday on the lack of movement on US-Iran negotiations towards resolving the impasse over the Strait of Hormuz. The S&P 500 fell 0.3 percent, to 7,652, the Dow fell 0.9 percent, to 50,906, while the Nasdaq rose 0.2 percent, to 26,861. (AFP) Edited by Robert Kemp
