The economy broadly stagnated in quarter-on-quarter terms in Q2, following Q1’s 17.2% annualized expansion, on weaker readings for private consumption, fixed investment and exports. In Q3, our Consensus is for sequential GDP growth to have accelerated, but for the economy to have remained over 1% smaller than before conflict broke out in Q4 2023. The war continued to weigh on labor supply, investment and tourism while displacing citizens in the north of the country. Available data is muted. In July–August, growth in the Central Bank’s economic activity index was weak by historical standards, and visitor arrivals fell 70% in annual terms in September. The intensification of conflict with Hezbollah and Israel’s land invasion of Lebanon will be restricting economic activity in Q4, and led our panelists to revise down their Q4 growth forecasts in recent weeks.
