GDP tracking forecast lowered

The initial forecast of 4.0% was released earlier this week, but it's just been lowered.

"The forecasts of third-quarter real consumer spending growth and real fixed investment growth declined from 3.0 percent and 5.2 percent to 2.8 percent and 4.1 percent, respectively, after this morning's employment report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics," the release said.
