华盛顿，4月9日（路透社）——美国政府周四公布的数据显示，由于包括库存积累在内的企业投资被下修，美国第四季度经济增速较此前预估进一步放缓，但企业利润大幅增长。
美国商务部经济分析局在第三次GDP估算报告中表示，国内生产总值年化增速下修至0.5%。此前公布的第四季度经济增速为0.7%，初次预估则为1.4%。
路透社调查的经济学家曾预测GDP增速将维持0.7%的初值不变。第四季度增速的下修反映出企业在知识产权产品上的支出以及库存投资均被下调。
占美国经济总量三分之二以上的消费者支出增速从此前公布的2.0%下修至1.9%。
去年的政府停摆是经济增速从第三季度的4.4%放缓的主要原因。
第三和第四季度的GDP数据均无法真实反映经济健康状况。
剔除政府支出、贸易和库存因素的私人国内最终销售在第四季度年化增速为1.8%，这一受政策制定者密切关注的国内需求指标此前预估增速为1.9%。第三季度国内需求增速为2.9%。
企业当期生产利润在第四季度增长2469亿美元，较第三季度1756亿美元的增幅大幅攀升。
从收入法计算，第四季度经济增速为2.6%。第三季度国内总收入增速为3.5%。
GDP和GDI的平均值，也被称为国内总产出，被认为是更能反映经济活动的指标，该指标第四季度年化增速为1.5%。第三季度国内总产出增速为4.0%。
尽管第一季度经济增速可能有所回升，但美以对伊朗的战争给美国经济蒙上了阴影。

WASHINGTON, April 9 (Reuters) – U.S. economic growth slowed more than previously estimated in the fourth quarter amid downgrades to business investment, including inventory accumulation, but corporate profits increased sharply, government data showed on Thursday.
Gross domestic product increased at a downwardly revised 0.5% annualized rate, the Commerce Department’s Bureau of Economic Analysis said in its third GDP estimate. The economy was previously reported to have grown at a 0.7% pace in the fourth quarter. The advance estimate had put GDP growth at 1.4%.

Economists polled by Reuters had forecast GDP growth would be unrevised at a 0.7% rate. Revisions to the fourth quarter’s growth pace reflected downgrades to business spending on intellectual products as well as inventories.
Growth in consumer spending, which accounts for more than two-thirds of the economy, was revised down to a 1.9% pace from the previously reported 2.0% rate.
Last year’s shutdown of the government was the key driver of the slowdown from the third quarter’s 4.4% growth pace.
Neither the third- nor fourth-quarter GDP readings are true reflections of the economy’s health.
Final sales to private domestic purchasers, which excludes government, trade and inventories, grew at a 1.8% pace in the fourth quarter. This measure of domestic demand, closely watched by policymakers, was previously estimated to have increased at a 1.9% rate. Domestic demand grew at a 2.9% pace in the July-September quarter.

Profits from current production increased at a rate of $246.9 billion in the fourth quarter, surging from a $175.6 billion growth pace in the third quarter.
When measured from the income side, the economy grew at a 2.6% rate in the fourth quarter. Gross domestic income increased at a 3.5% pace in the July-September quarter.
The average of GDP and GDI, also referred to as gross domestic output and considered a better measure of economic activity, grew at a 1.5% rate. Gross domestic output grew at a 4.0% rate in the third quarter.
Though growth likely picked up in the first quarter, the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran is casting a cloud over the economy.
