Private Markets Median Deal Gross IRR
The 4% GDP expansion in Q4 was driven by increases in consumer spending, exports, non-residential fixed investment, residential investment, and inventories. However, GDP expansion was still weighed down by declines in government spending at the federal, state, and local levels. Specifically, consumer spending increased by 2.5%, exports rose by 22% and gross private domestic investment surged by 25.3% while government spending contracted by 1.2% that was primarily due to an 8.4% decline in non-defense spending.
