The U.S. economy performed below expectations in the fourth quarter last year, with final data showing a downward revision in growth compared to the initial estimate.
Data released by the U.S. Department of Commerce indicates that the annualized quarter-on-quarter final value of real GDP for the fourth quarter was 0.5%, lower than the market expectation of 0.7% and also below the initial estimate of 0.7%. This downward revision reflects a weaker economic momentum for the quarter than previously estimated.
At the same time, the annualized quarter-on-quarter final value of the core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, which measures inflationary pressures, recorded 2.7%, in line with both market expectations and the initial estimate, with no surprises.

Breaking data alert! The U.S. Q4 GDP Price Index final reading came in at 3.7%, slightly below the 3.8% forecast; February Core PCE rose 2.97% year-over-year, also marginally missing the 3% estimate. Both figures came in softer than expected, signaling a modest easing of inflation pressure — yet still well above the Fed's 2% target. So when will the rate-cut window finally open? Do you think tonight's market is in for a major shakeup?
