New York The US economy started bouncing back from the pandemic lockdowns over the summer months. That much is certain. But just how big this rebound was — and how far we still remain from the pre-pandemic normal — won't be known until Thursday, when we'll get our first look at America's third-quarter report card.
Just five days before the presidential election, the Bureau of Economic Analysis will report US gross domestic product — the broadest measure of economic activity. Economists polled by Refinitiv expect the economy expanded about 7%, when adjusted for seasonal particularities, between July and September compared to the prior three months. That would be a sharp gain from the second quarter, when the economy shrunk a seasonally-adjusted 9%.
Measuring the reboundThe US economy fell into a recession in the first half of the year.The National Bureau of Economic Research defines a recession as a period between the peak of economic activity and the nadir. At this point, we can't be sure that we're out of a recession just yet. Early signs point to a slowdown in economic activity this quarter, and as Covid-19 cases spike again across America, a second lockdown — and deeper recession — are not outside the realm of possibility.

Every economist predicted we would be in this slump well into 2021 with 25% unemployment. Yet here we are booming! 3rd quarter GDP is estimated to be north of 30%.
