After starting its loosening cycle with a bang, we expect the Fed to take a more measured approach to cutting interest rates from now on.
The latest edition of this quarterly report captures the US economy at a key moment in its economic and policy cycle, providing analysis for the remainder of this year and into 2025. It addresses key economic and policy issues, including:
- How quickly the Federal Reserve will lower rates after the 'big bang' start to its easing cycle;
- Why, despite a cooling labour market, we expect GDP growth to remain strong for the next couple of years;
- How the outcome of this November's election could result in stagflationary economic conditions.
