US GDP Growth Since 2009; Investment

http://bonddad.blogspot.com/2013/08/us-gdp-growth-since-2009-investment.html

The above chart shows the percentage contribution of non-residential (business) investment.  Commercial real estate (dark blue) was negative until 2Q10.  However, once it turned positive it still didn't add much to overall growth.  Equipment (gold) added a great deal to growth for 6 of the 7 quarters mid-way through the expansion.  However, this type of investment dropped off in the last 6-7 quarters.  IP added a touch, but very little overall.
