Economic Update: Headlines vs Reality
Please join us for our Economic Update Educational Lunch Meeting on April 7th, presented by Steve Scranton economist at Washington Trust.
This session will provide an economic update for the national, regional and local economies. The discussion will provide insight into what the economic data is telling us versus what social media and news headlines may be saying. The goal of the session is to help attendees sift through the noise of headlines to understand what is actually happening in the economy so that they have useful information to use in their day to day business.
Topics that will be covered during the session include:
- What are the national economic indicators telling us versus headlines and social media?
- Comparison of Washington vs National Economy
- Comparison of Puget Sound vs National Economy
- What are the positive forces driving the economy?
- What are the threats to pay attention to?
- Closing thoughts
- Q&A
