Zusammenfassung: | Growth in the US economy slowed in the 3rd quarter, as private investment slowed sharply and Federal Government spending turned down. Inflation remained moderate. Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased 2.4% in the 3rd quarter of 2000, according to the preliminary estimates of the national income and product accounts, after increasing 5.6% in the 2nd quarter; the "advance" 3rd-quarter estimate 9f real GDP, reported in the November "Busienss Stiuation," had shown a 2.7% increase. The downward revision to read GDP reflected an upward revision to imports and downward revisions to buseinss investment in equipment and software and to private investment in inventories that were partly offset by upward revisions to busienss investment in structures and to State and local government spending. |
