40 US and Region Expansions: Going Forward Will Be Slower US economy will have slower growth compared to past expansions Slow growth following major financial crisis, though we are passing this drag Slowing of population growth Falling labor participation rate Manufacturing and exports have lead the way. Traditional boost from housing is finally coming around. State and local governments have turned the corner of declining tax revenues. Pothole versus Falling Off the Cliff. This recession is somewhat of a game changer. We are not on the same road, but the road at the bottom of the Cliff is gradually rising. Changing spending behavior, savings rates, home ownership rates, need to be taken into account. Job growth was subdued but picking up steam in the last two years. In this respect, the recovery still has legs for fast growth. Outlook for continued growth in 2015 and Always bumps in the road to slow us down, but more like speed bumps rather than potholes.
