WASHINGTON, Feb. 25 (UPI) -- The U.S. government revised the nation's fourth-quarter gross domestic product to 2.8 percent, 0.4 percentage points lower than reported a month ago.
Economists had predicted a slight bump, to 3.3 percent. Instead, the Bureau of Economic Analysis said net exports were lower than previously reported. The gain in personal consumption was also revised to 4.1 percent from 4.4 percent.
