Inflation-adjusted disposable income increased by 1%, a slight slowdown from the 1.3% gain in the first quarter. </p><p>Yet even as incomes grew modestly, Americans put a smaller share of their money aside for the future. The personal saving rate, in which the bureau compares savings with disposable personal income, was 3.5% in the second quarter. That is a pullback from the 3.8% rate measured in the first quarter of 2024. </p><p>Real GDP growth also got a lift from a buildup of inventories that provided a 0.8 percentage-point boost to overall GDP—a significant shift after a pullback in the first quarter.
