The latest GDP trackers

  • Atlanta Fed to 2.4% from 2.7%

  • NY Fed to 2.4% from 2.5%

From the NY Fed: "Negative surprises from lower than expected exports and imports data were only partially offset by positive surprises from the ISM manufacturing survey, while for 2019:Q1, the impact of positive surprises from the ISM manufacturing survey dominated."

From Atlanta Fed: " The nowcast of fourth-quarter real final sales of domestic product growth decreased from 2.9 percent to 2.7 percent after this morning's employment report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The nowcast of the contribution of inventory investment to fourth-quarter real GDP growth decreased from -0.23 percentage points to -0.33 percentage points after the employment report and this morning's wholesale trade release from the U.S. Census Bureau."

Meanwhile, to avoid perfect symmetry, Goldman Sachs raised their GDP tracker to 2.5% from 2.4%.
