The latest GDP report has stunned analysts, revealing a powerful rebound in the U.S. economy during the second quarter of 2025. With a 3% annualized growth rate, the numbers exceeded expectations and signaled a wave of economic momentum under President Donald Trump’s administration.

Experts across the board praised the report’s strength:

• Economist E.J. Antoni called it “an absolute blockbuster,” noting solid internal metrics.
• Steve Moore highlighted job creation and low inflation, describing the outlook as “a beautiful picture.”
• Adam Johnson emphasized the balance between growth and inflation, calling it “the best of both worlds.”

The report also showed:

• Consumer spending rose by 1.4%, up from 0.5% in Q1.
• Inflation remained tame at 2%, below the expected 2.2%.
• Imports dropped sharply, helping boost domestic production.

Supporters credit Trump’s economic strategy—focused on trade reform, tax cuts, and deregulation—for fueling the surge. Critics remain skeptical, but the data paints a picture of resilience and recovery.

As the Federal Reserve weighs its next move, this report may influence interest rate decisions in the coming months.
