Recent data indicates strong economic momentum, reflecting positive trends in core GDP and domestic investment. According to a statement from Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, “President Trump is delivering robust economic growth fueled by trillions in new investments.” GDP figures, though backward-looking, show the end of previous economic challenges and highlight a burgeoning economic boom. January’s growth, particularly in consumer spending, faced temporary setbacks due to weather conditions but has since strengthened. Core GDP grew at a solid 3.0%, and gross domestic investment surged by 22%, the highest in four years. Monthly indicators point to accelerating growth post-January, with private employment, consumer spending, and capital investment all showing improvement while inflation has slowed. Import surges contributed to some decline, yet exports rose healthily by 1.8%. These forward-looking indicators underscore the momentum tied to President Trump’s economic agenda. — new from The White House (.gov)
