The AI Boom Is Driving GDP Growth
About this episode
The episode discusses GDP growth driven by AI, national debt implications, and tech earnings reports.
P.M. Edition for April 30. GDP rose 2% for the first three months of the year, rising from the previous quarter but not as fast as economists were expecting. Greg Daco, chief economist at EY-Parthenon, joins to discuss the business investments fueling that growth. Plus, U.S. national debt now exceeds 100% of GDP. Hear from Journal investing columnist Spencer Jakab on how that could affect government activity. And the latest tech giant reports: Apple profit margins and revenue top Wall Street expectations.
