US Economic Growth for Q4 of 2025 revised down to 0.7% [View all]

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-economy-expanded-sluggish-0-124253941.html

Another disaster economic indicator. GDP growth is a lagging indicator, so the better numbers earlier in 2025 were the remnants of the Biden economy.

Trump should resign over his imploding the US economy alone. Virtually no jobs created for a whole year and now losing jobs. Stock market performance well below average. And now growth falling off a cliff. We're heading for an economic disaster and there's no stopping it now. Trump's policies have been a disaster for the US economy and now the US working class is about to pay a severe price for years to come.

During Trump's first term, the economy did fine, wasn't great, wasn't bad. I was one of the people in here telling people things were OK and the markets were still rising. But those tariffs were just bad policy, I could not believe the GOP went along with them. We're going to be facing a deep and long recession based on those tariffs alone.
