  • Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary Michael Faulkender Economy Statement For The Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee Of The Securities Industry And Financial Markets Association

    Date 29/04/2019

    Sixteen months after the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), the U.S. economy continues to reap significant benefits from this legislation, as well as from regulatory tailoring and other measures the Administration has undertaken to boost private investment, productivity, labor force participation, wages, and growth. The advance estimate for real GDP in the first quarter of 2019 showed economic growth increasing at an annual rate of 3.2 percent, considerably higher than market expectations. This acceleration followed growth of 3.0 percent over the four quarters of 2018 – which was the fastest pace since 2005. As of late April, the consensus of private forecasts for real GDP growth in Q1 underestimated the actual outturn by more than one-half percentage point, so it is possible that the private consensus estimate of 2.6 percent growth in the second quarter could be revised upward.
