The Fed thinks things are going to get rocky fast. The Atlanta Fed has a GDPNow index that is a running estimate of real GDP growth based on available economic data for the current measured quarter. The GDPNow model estimate for real GDP growth in the first quarter of 2025 is -2.8 percent as of March 3. Two weeks ago, it stood above 2 percent. Musk's government cuts and Trump's tariffs are rapidly impacting the economy.
