Watch your Cisco's, P's&Q's, & GDP's: cnnfn.com Today's economic data: U.S. investors will have several pieces of economic data to mull over Thursday morning. Before the market opens, the Commerce Department will issue another reading on second-quarter GDP. Analysts polled by Reuters anticipate that the revised annual growth rate will come in at 1.8 percent, after an initial showing of 2.3 percent. Also, the Labor Department will release its weekly jobless claims report. Analysts expect claims rose to 291,000 for the week ended Aug. 20, from 287,000 the week earlier. Also expected are minutes from the Federal Open Market Committee's June 29-30 meeting. Observers hope the remarks will yield some clues about Fed policymakers' long-term thinking on monetary policy and the direction of interest rates.
