Oxford Economics says the US remains strong but growth is uneven economy. Q3 GDP rose 3.4%, above analysts’ expectations, reflecting continued AI-driven investment. The firm says private fixed investment is rising sharply as AI infrastructure is built and expects growth to remain unusually dependent on corporate investment over the next few quarters. It adds AI-related wealth effects also supported part of Q3 consumption. Oxford warns this investment dependence is a risk: post-investment booms tend to produce longer, deeper recessions.
