The S&P Was Either Way Off in April and May, or June’s GDP Was One of the Greatest Months in US Economic History

The S&P was either way off in its April and May projections for the US GDP or June’s GDP was one of the greatest months in US history.  

S&P’s Monthly GDP report told subscribers that the economy went nowhere in April and May:

As seen in the graphic below, if S&P was right (VERY doubtful), the economy must have grown by 1.9% in June alone (i.e., at a 25% annualized rate!):

S&P predicted 2Q would come in at 1.3%, miles below today’s reported 3.0%.

And companies pay for this???

If S&P was really correct about April and May, the June economy (excluding CCVID) boomed to a degree we’ve rarely if ever seen.

  1. I have noticed going back to at least the Clinton years, that when a Republican is potus the estimates [which usually get most of the media coverage] are always lower than the actual numbers that get released a week or so later. And when a D is potus, it is the reverse. Just more proof [if you needed more] that the media is corrupt.
