Michael Reid: 当前美国经济面临诸多不确定性，导致GDP增长低于趋势水平。我预计今年GDP增长约为1.5%，且2026年经济前景也不容乐观。消费者支出受到高物价的影响，贸易方面的不确定性可能会影响贸易逆差，政府支出方面的不确定性也对经济构成不利因素。不过，高收入消费者群体表现强劲，他们受通胀的影响较小，是当前经济增长的主要动力。财富效应和非劳动收入是高收入家庭消费的重要驱动因素。社会保障收入的增加也是个人收入增长的主要驱动力，这与人口结构变化有关。大量退休人员正在进入消费阶段，他们的支出来自社会保障收入和投资组合收入。
Ben Levison: 我认为GDP数据可能存在更大的波动性。第一季度的数据表现疲软，而亚特兰大联储的GDP预测显示第二季度的数据将达到3.8%。
