US Q2 GDP growth slows to 1.5

US economic growth slowed to 1.5% annually in the second quarter, below the expected 2.1%, reflecting a deceleration in activity due to weak spending and investment. However, consumer spending remained robust at 3.2% for the quarter, supported by tax refunds, rising asset prices, and stimuli related to the World Cup and upcoming elections. Economists anticipate that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates again in September amid concerns that the ongoing Middle East conflict may impact demand and future growth. Meanwhile, households continue to dip into their savings due to rising gas prices and inflationary pressures.
