Gross Domestic Product 1Q 2013 rose by 2.5%, 1st estimate, most inputs were positive, with only govt spending (sequester) and import growth negatively influencing GDP 3% would be “ok”, 5% would be “good” growth.

LEI down 0.1% in March, CEI also down (drop in income). Loss in govt spending means private sector may struggle to hold up growth. Source: The Conference Board
Consumer Sentiment (UMich) down 2.2 pts in April. Consumer Confidence (The Conference Board) up 6.2 pts in April. • Consumers feel more positive about housing, but less confident about job growth over half expect inflation to exceed wage gains. Sequester and payroll taxes likely drag on growth.
