In the first quarter of 2026, the contribution of U.S. total government consumption expenditures and gross investment to GDP quarter-over-quarter growth climbed to 0.73 percentage points, staging a strong rebound from -0.90 percentage points in the previous quarter. The overall Q1 annualized GDP growth rate reached 2.0%. Although this fell short of the market expectation of 2.3%, benefiting from the replenishment of government spending and robust investment in AI equipment, it successfully fended off the downward pressure on consumption caused by rising inflation.
