The New Economic Normal
We’ve been through two difficult years dealing with COVID-19, and now we’re seeing the economic effects. Interest rates are rising, and the housing market is volatile. The cost of living has soared, and many must choose which bills they do or don’t pay. Inflation is at a 30-year high, and the stock market is in bear territory. Recession is predicted for the end of the year.
How long might this uncertainty last? What impact do global trends have? How best can we navigate it? This podcast is a recording of our special event, “The new economic normal”, featuring Brad Olsen in conversation with our Executive Director Tim Wilson. At this event, Brad offers insight into where the economy is currently at, and where it might be going and takes questions from those attending.
We hope you enjoy the listen as much as we enjoyed this event.
