Examination and findings on economic leading indicators
Welcome to the Economic Outlook Series
As we’re facing many new and escalating challenges on the global economic front, particularly from the COVID-19 (coronavirus), it is essential first to recognize the impact that this health crisis is having on lives around the world.
Prevedere’s latest U.S. economic outlook examines the long-awaited reopening of the country’s economic engine since having been forcibly shutdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Economists are studying what the unfolding progress will look like and how federal and state-level policies that are in place for opening will impact economic performance. Of paramount importance is understanding how the reopening of the economy will bring jobs back across different sectors and geographies.
In his latest economic report, Mr. Andrew Duguay, Prevedere’s Chief Economist, highlights the intricate balance of employment scenarios, including unrecovered jobs, job reallocation, and more. Americans have to get back to work. But how quickly can we do it? Mr. Duguay provides employment mapping across industries as a benchmark moving through the rest of the year and into 2021.
It’s gonna be a trough and there’s going to be a period where new jobs are created and filled as businesses engineer for the new economy.
