Hilarious. Too bad you weren't smart enough to understand what a 4.3 quarterly growth number means for America. You were certainly dumb enough to believe that we'd me looking at zero or negative growth due to the tariffs. Oh and we were also going to see inflations spike. Oh and the stock market was going to be in the toilet as well. Care to take any of that back now? Of course not, you losers just keep spewing the next round of bullshit over and over and over and over.
The numbers we get are lies.....for instance federal debt is counted as GDP.

This is truly good news. It's a higher number than I expected for sure and I am bullish on the economy. I do believe that we will see numbers hit as high as 7% in the next year. It's not difficult to predict, the policies are now in place that have proven to be successful throughout all of human history. We would be in better shape right now if we didn't have an auntie Trump moron at the FED intentionally slowing the recovery as much as he possibly could. I won't miss Powell for one second, the only ones that will are the Democrats that want this country to fail miserably while Trump is in office. They certainly did their best to set up a disaster before leaving as they always seem to.

OK, so the Bureau of Economic Analysis is claiming that GDP for Q3 is up a whopping 4.3% while most of the economy feels like it’s in a recession. Now, granted these numbers are from July through September, and the economy likely deteriorated in recent weeks. But still, there’s no way the Q3 economy reflects that topline number. So what gives?
Here are a few factors to consider:

I pegged it pretty good in my political predictions thread about GDP. MANY months ago, I had initially predicted 3.5% for Q3, but as time went on, I knew that my initial prediction was too low. As of two months ago (even three months ago I had thought about it), I had revised my prediction up to 4.5% ... 4.3% is pretty darn close to that prediction, and I'm willing to bet that the 4.3% figure gets revised upward.

Biden had FOUR better quarters in his term of office.

Is this thread still active? If so, what's the exact title?
You did well with your prediction. Not to diminish it, but anyone paying attention could outperform the usual talking heads who carry obvious axes to grind. Honest history alone, viewed without bias, beats those so-called experts every time.
I've already thrown out my number for next year. I'll lock in 7% GDP growth for Q3 2026, with Q4 likely stronger if historical patterns hold. History is a solid guide, but the unprecedented investment flood we're seeing is hard to model precisely until we get clearer data on inflows during the first half of the year.
What do you see for the third and fourth quarters of 2026?
Damn, you are lost. The AI spending boom has pumped up a bad economy. Just go to the market and you will find that inflation and living costs are climbing faster than wages,. The amount being spent in AI and the buildings that will house it,is astronomical. Without that, the economy would show its wounds more clearly, clear enough that you may understand it.

Biden didn't have ANY better quarters. The topline GDP figures during the Autopen Regime were mostly because of big government and massive inflation.
These current figures are with SMALLER government and much LOWER inflation.

Yes sir. That thread is right here (Quarter 2 GDP Figure Prediction).
I started this thread on the very same day that the initial Q1 GDP number was released and our leftist friends on here were all giddy about the very low number. I knew that they are lazy and only look at the "top line" and not the details, so I made the immediate prediction that Q2's GDP would be MUCH higher than Q1's. Well, I turned out to be right (although I guessed a bit high).
I also decided to continue into Q3 and made a Q3 prediction on the day that Q2's number was released. I later adjusted that prediction upward and basically pegged it.
In short, I just wanted to prove that our leftist friends are idiots and don't know anything about what the GDP means or how it is calculated. They were all giddy after Q1, but after Q2 and Q3, they aren't so giddy anymore... It was easily predictable by anyone with a working brain cell or two.
Bingo. No offense taken. In fact, that's exactly what I was setting out to prove by making my prediction thread.
I wouldn't be surprised by such a number. It's VERY possible.
I haven't thought that far ahead yet. I haven't even looked into Q4 2025 to be honest. I had a specific point that I wanted to prove with why the Q1 2025 GDP was lower and why the Q2 2025 GDP would be much higher than Q1. I just tacked on Q3 2025 GDP for the fun of it.
I anticipate that next year's numbers will be even better than this year's. Donald Trump is a once-in-a-lifetime President and I am enjoying EVERY moment of it.

He sure did, slimy.
And your guy has been pumping trillions into the government. Subsidized spending, just like FDR or LBJ.
