Economic Forecast Breakfast: Return of the Economist: COVID-19 Economic Update
November 18, 2020 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am
Join Howard County Chamber of Commerce for their Economic Forecast Breakfast hosted by Anirban Basu! The Economic Forecast Breakfast invites area economists to share their overview of economic conditions and pressing business issues as well as look ahead to the coming year in business.
COVID-19 has rocked what had appeared to be a nearly invincible economy; one associated with substantial job growth, multi-decade lows in unemployment, sturdy compensation increases, robust retail sales, low inflation, and strong financial market performance. Underneath that strong performance, however, was a set of fragilities that have been exposed by the pandemic. This webinar speaks to our current economic circumstances, how difficult things are likely to become over the foreseeable future, and the contours of the brisk recovery to come thereafter.
Registration will close at 5pm on Tuesday, November 17th. For more information check out the event page here.
