The US economy picked up speed over the three months to September, driven by a jump in consumer spending and increased exports. This expansion marks an annual rate of 4.3%, a leap from the previous quarter's 3.8% and the strongest growth in two years. Despite a backdrop of fluctuating trade policies, inflation concerns, and cuts in government spending, the economy showed solid momentum, outpacing many forecasts. Aditya Bhave from Bank of America remarked on the economy's surprising resilience since early 2022, suggesting that this trend could continue. The growth, primarily fueled by a 3.5% rise in consumer spending and a significant 7.4% increase in exports, indicates that the economy is adapting well despite challenges in business investment and the housing market. Optimism remains, but experts caution that rising prices could impact lower and middle-income households, which might challenge the sustainability of this rapid growth.
