The US economy has shown stronger than expected resilience, with the second quarter GDP growth revised up to 3.3%, exceeding initial estimates of 3%. Recent government data indicates this increase was fueled by improved investments and a rebound in corporate profits, which rose by 2.0% quarter-on-quarter. Despite this growth, concerns remain about underlying economic strength as inflation pressures persist. Overall, the economic expansion during this period has outperformed forecasts, providing a glimmer of optimism amidst ongoing trade tensions.
