STEPHEN MOORE: Economists keep missing the Trump boom — and they won't admit it
Economist Steve Moore discusses the nation’s rebound from inflation and its path toward renewed economic success on ‘Hannity.’
Well, Donald Trump has done it again!
He stumped the chumps. The "chumps" in this case were the "blue-chip" academic and financial economists whose consensus forecast this time last year predicted high inflation and low economic growth. They were wrong on both counts.
As you've probably heard, GDP growth for the third quarter came in at a red-hot 4.3%, following 3.5% for the second quarter. Some 90% of professional economists got it wrong — all underestimating the strength of the Trump economy. QED: These weren't random errors. These were "hate Trump" errors.
They also predicted inflation of above 3% for 2025. Instead, it's likely to come in closer to 2.7%, with the last two months trending down toward the Federal Reserve's inflation target of 2%.
