US third-quarter 2026 GDP growth forecast at a 3.2% annual rate
Axios reports consumer spending and AI investment likely drove growth, but semiconductor imports may offset some of the boost.
TLDR
Axios reports that economists surveyed by Bloomberg expected third-quarter 2026 US GDP growth of 3.2% at an annual rate, potentially the fastest since the third quarter of 2025. Reuters reports its economist survey also forecast 3.2%, with consumer spending and AI-related business investment likely driving growth.
