The US economy is indeed slowing down, according to Fitch Ratings' latest Global Economic Outlook report. Here are some key indicators and forecasts that illustrate the slowdown

GDP Growth: Fitch projects the US annual average GDP growth to remain at a subdued 1.6% in 2025 and 2026, down from 2.8% in 2024. This deceleration is attributed to weakened consumer spending, reduced job creation, and increased inflation.

Consumer Spending: Consumer spending growth declined to 1.6% annualized in the first half of 2025, compared to 3% during 2023 and 2024. Services expenditure has significantly decreased due to weakened consumer confidence and increased household savings.

Employment: The labor market shows signs of slowing, with the average monthly increase in payrolls reaching only 29,000 during the three months leading to August, marking the lowest level since 2010. JPMorgan analysts also note that the tepid August jobs report is evidence of the US economic slowdown.

Inflation: Inflation is expected to reduce real wage increases and affect US consumer expenditure. Fitch anticipates a stronger pass-through of tariffs to US CPI inflation later in the year, with core inflation potentially remaining sticky.

Federal Reserve: Markets are anticipating a 25-basis-point rate cut at the upcoming September 17, 2025, FOMC meeting, reflecting the market's expectation that the Fed will respond to the slowing economic activity.


Overall, the US economy is navigating a period of profound uncertainty, with a complex array of economic indicators presenting a mixed picture for policymakers, businesses, and investors alike
