Estados Unidos PIB Taxa De Crescimento Anual

The US economic growth accelerated to 1.6 percent year-on-year during the first quarter of 2023, up from 0.9 percent in the previous period, a preliminary estimate showed. Consumer spending rose at a faster pace (2.3 percent vs 1.7 percent in Q4), despite the stubbornly high inflation, due to a rebound in goods purchases (0.8 percent vs -0.8 percent) and a solid increase in services consumption (3.0 percent, the same as in Q4). In addition, public spending increased 2.6 percent, the most since the second quarter of 2020, and net external demand contributed positively to the GDP as exports rose and imports fell. Meanwhile, nonresidential fixed investment growth slowed to 2.7 percent (vs 4.5 percent in Q4) and residential fixed investment tumbled 19.0 percent, a sixth period of contraction, as rising borrowing costs continued to hurt the housing market.
