Even more surprising than the blockbuster 4.3% economic growth rate recorded in the third quarter of 2025 was the fact that some 90% of the nation’s professional economists got it all wrong.
These economic whiz-kids’ faulty forecast comes on the heels of their predictions last week that inflation was going to be above 3%. Instead, the actual number was 2.7%.
Is this a joke? 2.7% inflation???? I don't have a subscription to Shadow stats, but last I knew ACTUAL inflation was somewhere north of 8%. The economic growth is just inflation, pure and simple. People are being forced to spend more because their dollar buys less and less.
Why do pessimistic pundits keep getting Trump’s economy so wrong?
