L1. Now What: 2024 Economy at the Midpoint

Speaker(s): Dr. Christopher Kuehl
NASBA field of study: Economics - Technical (1)

The main drivers of the economy last year were consumer spending, nonresidential construction, government spending and inventory build. Discuss whether these levers are still in play, see what’s going on with the economy so far and get insight into whether 2024 will be a better performer than 2023. Look at the mid-year status of interest rates and the impact of the latest supply chain disruptions, as well as other concerns, from the workforce and the election to commodity prices and more.
