    Underlying demand in the U.S. economy grew less than previously thought in the three months through March, revised data showed Thursday. Final sales to private domestic purchases, a measure that tracks demand from businesses and consumers, rose at a 2.5% rate. The figure was down from an earlier estimate of 3%. The reading, in updated Commerce Department GDP data issued Thursday, was the weakest since mid-2023.

    The U.S. economy's contraction during the first quarter was slightly less severe than initially thought, according to new government data. Gross domestic product, a broad measure of the goods and services produced across the U.S., contracted at a 0.2% seasonally and inflation-adjusted annual rate January through March, the Commerce Department said Thursday. The department estimated a month ago that first-quarter GDP contracted at a 0.3% rate.

    Factory-gate prices fell unexpectedly last month, due to a decline in services prices. The producer-price index dropped by a seasonally adjusted 0.5% in April, the Labor Department said Thursday. It attributed the decline to a 0.7% drop in services prices, the largest pullback since the index began in December 2009, due to lower margins for trade services. The index for goods was unchanged. Economists polled by The Wall Street Journal had expected the overall index to rise by 0.3%.

    エコノミストはリセッション確率を引き下げ 米経済が中国と関係を断ちつつあるとあなたが思っているなら、考え直すべきだ。「双方ともデカップリング(切り離し)は望んでいない」とスコット・ベッセント米財務長官は12日、対中関税を大幅に引き下げる暫定合意を発表する際に語った。ベッセント氏によれば、米国は中国との「長期にわたる持続的な通商協定」を目指している。 今回のリセットにより、米経済はモノの主要消費国として慣れ親しんだ軌道に戻り、リセッションのリスクが低下するとエコノミストたちはみている。この新たな合意で、関税のショック療法を使って製造業大国としての米国の地位を回復しようとする試みも一時中断する。Copyright ©2025 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
