As we approach the 2024 elections, the political noise will likely grow louder, and the economy will be a main topic of debate. Join our session, Stay Focused on the Economy amid Political Noise, as economist Steve Scranton discusses the outlook for economic growth over the next twelve months.

This session will highlight the risks of being sidetracked by media coverage, rather than focusing on your business and data around economic conditions.

Topics include:

  • A breakdown of national, state, and regional economic indicators
  • The relationship between politics and economic growth
  • The Federal Reserve interest rate policy;
  • Strategies to translate economic data and keep your business on track amid turbulence

Don’t forget to check out the other webcasts in our four-part virtual 2024 Building Opportunity Conference.
