Episode Synopsis

In this episode, C.A.R. economists discuss the latest concerns about the economy and the odds of a recession. We dive into how some of the macroeconomic variables are affecting everything from retail sales slowing down to consumer confidence hitting its lowest point since 2021.

Interest rates may also remain elevated as the the Fed suggests that they could "wait-and-see" for a little longer.
