Current Forecast

View the current forecast from J.W. Coons Advisors, LLC (PDF):

After expanding 5.9% in the fourth quarter of 2009, real GDP is projected to have increased by approximately 3% in the first half of 2010 before slowing in the second half. The 2007-09 recession ended in the May-July period, and growth is projected to remain solid for a few quarters before weakening to a below trend rate perhaps as soon as the second half of 2010. A key factor behind the expected slowdown is the deleveraging of household balance sheets.
