Halfway to Nowhere
Economic activity fared a little better than many feared in the third quarter with GDP
advancing at an estimated rate of 2% to 2½%. But growth remains too slow to
reduce unemployment or provide much lift to consumer confidence.
Cyclical forces in the form of pent-up demand have been enough (with policy
support) to keep recovery going. Following earlier news of strong business
investment, solid auto sales in September provide the latest evidence that
temporary drags associated with supply line disruptions last spring may have
exaggerated signs that growth was faltering.
Modest monthly private sector job gains averaging 117,000 in the third quarter have
further allayed worries about a new down leg. But cutbacks in state and local
employment and stagnant construction and financial sector hiring present lingering
obstacles to a healthy labor market. Although unemployment has steadied of late,
household employment gains have centered on part-time work, while measures of
long-term unemployment continue to worsen.
