First Quarter GDP was revised to a final drop of 5.5%, slightly better than was previously reported 5.7% and the 6.1% originally reported.  This comes after the final numbers for Fourth Quarter GDP was down -6.3%, the worst quarter since Q1 1982 when economic "growth" was -6.4%.   This is the first streak of three negative quarters since Q1 1975.

Here is a breakdown of where the economy is shrinking, and growing, most.

    • Private Investment:  -48.9%
    • Net Exports:

    • Government Consumption: -3.1%
      • Federal: -4.5%
