Gov contribution +0.4%, inventory build up +1.3%, so ignoring these contributions we get -3.8% -0.4% -1.3% = -5.5%

It seems that the consensus of -5.4% was pretty close.

economists were absolutely surprised by the inventories buildup. In fact all economists have taken that as a reason to cut further their initial estimates to Q1 GDP
