Weak trade data sliced 0.2pp from 3Q GDP tracking, leaving our estimate at 3.3% qoq saar. [Aug 31 estimate].

And from the Altanta Fed: GDPNow

The GDPNow model estimate for real GDP growth (seasonally adjusted annual rate) in the third quarter of 2018 is 4.1 percent on August 30, down from 4.6 percent on August 24. [Aug 30 estimate]

From the NY Fed Nowcasting Report
