US GDP growth accelerates to 3.4% ahead of midterms
Original: US GDP accelerates to 3.4% in the third quarter, giving Trump a messaging boost on eve of midterms
US economic growth accelerated to 3.4% annualised in the third quarter, according to newly released GDP data. The stronger-than-expected reading lands just before the midterm elections, giving President Trump and Republicans a fresh talking point on the economy, while Democrats continue to argue that household costs remain the bigger concern for voters.
Why now: The GDP release comes immediately before the US midterm elections, making the growth figures politically charged.
