Economy grew at 6.4% rate in first quarter as US emerges from pandemic
(Worthy News) – The economy just experienced the second-largest quarterly growth IN 18 years as vaccinations continue and consumers begin to spend more.
U.S. gross domestic product grew at a 6.4% annual rate in the first quarter of 2021, the Bureau of Economic Analysis announced on Thursday morning. The growth was a bit short of expectations but shows that economic growth is moving in the right direction.
Last year’s fiscal year saw the two biggest swings in U.S. GDP history.
