I had somehow missed that the FED's GDPNow
projection had dropped again at the beginning of April.
This number is always off since different components of GDP are accounted at different times but still,. interesting.

Hah, so the next #GDPNow forecast release is happening in a few hours (2025-04-03) with the most recent inputs being "International trade (Full report), ISM Services". I'm feeling like 'overnight' is too fast for the most recent bit of tariff follies to show up in the inputs, so any drop *probably doesn't even include the worst inputs yet.*

Worth knowing that in the past 5-6 weeks it's gone from forecasting ~2% growth to ~3.7% shrinkage in GDP - and this isn't editorializing, it's just raw calculations based on a bunch of input data on purchasing, supply chains, etc.

How low will we go on forecasts even without the new follies?
