1st quarter GDP was revised higher to 1.4%, matching expectations, while initial jobless claims came in lower than expected at 233,000.
Net exports was a major driver of the upward revision, moving from -0.9% up to -0.65%. Government consumption also increased in the final estimate of Q1 GDP, moving from 1.3% to 1.8% annualized, while personal consumption fell to 1.5% from 2.0%. So all-in-all, it was a bit of a mixed bag.
Though initial jobless claims came in lower than expected, continuing claims rose to 1.84 million, its highest level since the end of 2021. Recent labor data has shown signs of a cooldown suggesting that it may be close to normalization.
