mpc: 13 The ONS had estimated GDP growth of 0.4% in Q3, unchanged from its preliminary estimate.
The main news in the expenditure components was a slightly weaker-than-expected outturn for
investment and a slightly stronger outturn for exports and government spending. Consumption growth
was broadly in line with expectations. Estimates for Q3 were, of course, still uncertain and subject to
revision.
