Let's break it up and see what the changes are.
Q2 GDP (1st estimate) = 0.53 + 1.46 + 1.57 + (-0.72) = 2.84 (2.8)
Q2 GDP (2nd estimate) = 0.46 + 1.31 + 1.95 + (-0.77) = 2.95 (3)
Q2 GDP (Final estimate) = 0.52 + 1.47 + 1.9 + (-0.9) = 2.99 (3)
The US had revised up its government spending (0.52) and investment (1.47) slightly but revised down its consumption (1.9) and net export (-0.9) from its 2nd estimate.
These revisions don't bode well for US economic growth because local and oversea consumptions are in a decline.
