Economic growth in the final three months of last year has been revised down sharply, with the first estimate showing growth of 1.4%.However, many analysts have been quick to dismiss the latest GDP data as outdated, as April marks the start of the second quarter of 2026.Along with weak growth data, the BEA also released its Personal Consumption Expenditures Index, which showed inflation remained elevated but stable in February.Core PCE, which strips out volatile food and energy prices and is the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation measure, increased by 0.4% in February, matching January’s 0.4% increase. Consumer prices rose in line with expectations.Over the last 12 months, core PCE rose to 3.0%, down from 3.1% reported in January. Annual inflation also came in line with economists’ projections.The gold market is not seeing any significant reaction to the disappointing economic and inflation data and remains capped below initial resistance at $4,800 an ounce. Spot gold last traded at $4,743.20 an ounce, up 0.5% on the day.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"-1","news_tag":"economic","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.40.0","shortVersion":"4.40.0","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2626618763","isCrawlerRequest":true}
