How this statistic is built
DefinitionQuarter-over-quarter percent change in real (inflation-adjusted) gross domestic product, seasonally adjusted at an annual rate — the headline US growth number.
LimitationsEach quarter is revised twice after the advance estimate, and again in annual updates — recent bars will move. Annualized rates quadruple the size of one-quarter swings.
