The Walter E. Hoadley Annual Economic Forecast, presented by Bank of America.

The US heads into 2024 with an economy that is strong but widely believed to be underperforming. With inflation tamped down to normal rates, unemployment at record lows and continued strong job growth and corporate profits, why aren’t American consumers and business leaders more bullish about the state of the economy?

Join us for the economic talk of the year—our annual economic forecast. Our expert panel, including Lanhee Chen of the Hoover Institution, Mauro F. Guillén of the Wharton School and Nancy Wallace of Berkeley Haas, will give you the insight you need to better understand the trends, policies, dangers and opportunities that lie ahead for your business and your wallet in 2024.

Speakers:
Lahnee Chen, David and Diane Steffy Fellow in American Public Policy Studies, the Hoover Institution; Director of Domestic Policy Studies and Lecturer in the Public Policy Program, Stanford University

Mauro F. Guillén, William H. Wurster Professor of Multinational Management and Vice Dean, MBA Program for Executives, the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania

Nancy Wallace, Professor and Chair of the Real Estate Group, Lisle and Roslyn Payne Chair in Real Estate and Capital Markets; Co-chair, Fisher Center for Real Estate and Urban Economics, Berkeley Haas
