Outlook for the Economy

The U.S. economy will muddle through better than most, but consumer incomes and overall inflation should remain on the radar.

Robert Johnson, CFA
Mentioned:
  • Slow but steady U.S. GDP growth, moderating inflation, and rising employment growth is on tap for the remainder of the year.
  • The U.S. economy is gaining strength as other world economies are slowing. 
  • Fears over the effects of gasoline prices, a slowing China, and higher interest rates are overblown.
