Economic impact of Sandy’s damage on U.S. economy
Economists estimate Sandy caused about 20 billion dollars in damages and 10 to 30 billion in lost business, with a short term drag of about 0.6 percentage point on GDP in Q4. Long term growth may benefit from reconstruction, while power outages, refinery shutdowns, and disrupted travel linger.
