1 US Macro Overview March 8, 8

2 Overview Growth in the US has firmed in recent quarters as the shocks that hit the economy in mid dollar appreciation and falling commodity prices have largely run their course. Fiscal stimulus will boost growth in 8 and 9. Several indicators suggest that the economy is at or near full employment, with clearer evidence that the rate of increase of wages/compensation has moved higher. Underlying inflation slowed in 7 and remains below the FOMC s objective of %, but recent indicators suggest that an upturn in inflation is underway.
