    2024: Reasons for optimism under Democrat admin

     

    New York CNN —

    Many feared 2023 would be the year of recession. It turned out to be the year of remarkable resilience.

    The US economy appears to be enjoying the soft landing many argued was nearly impossible.

    Inflation has cooled dramatically, unemployment remains low and the Federal Reserve could deliver rate cuts as soon as March.

    “The big story of 2023 is we stuck the landing,” Justin Wolfers, professor at the University of Michigan, told CNN.

    Wolfers noted the economy didn’t just bounce back from the fastest recession ever, but it overcame the war in Ukraine, oil price shocks, political dysfunction and countless other issues.

    The US economy still faces real risks and challenges, from the Israel-Hamas war to the least affordable housing market in a generation. And yet there are tangible reasons to be optimistic about the economy in 2024, forces that are easier to see than they were a year ago.

    ‘Remarkable’ inflation cool-down

    Many on Wall Street and in Washington expected inflation would cool after hitting four-decade highs in June 2022.

    But few anticipated just how fast it would happen. an_cheers

    Consumer prices increased by 3.1% year-over-year in November, down sharply from 9.1% in June 2022.

    The speed of the inflation cool-down is “remarkable,” economist Ian Shepherdson recently wrote in a report.

    Outlook for 2024 

     

        Declaring victory over inflation

     

    Inflation has cooled so much the Fed has halted the monster-sized rate hikes that threatened to derail the economy and freaked out investors.

    Fed officials are now even penciling in rate cuts for 2024, an outcome which would represent declaring victory in the war on inflation.

    Zandi said he suspects the Fed will cut rates four times in 2024, likely beginning in May.

    Goldman Sachs is betting the Fed could start delivering rate cuts in March.

    Rate cuts would bring relief to Main Street, lowering the cost to get a mortgage, get a car loan and carry a credit card balance. Mortgage rates have already plunged from nearly 8% in October to 6.6% at the end of the year and the outlook for 2024 is continuing declines. an_2drinks
