    Elevate Your Bottom Line

    Inflation Update: 3 Things to Know by Brian Beaulieu
    Our view toward where inflation is heading clearly indicates the Federal Reserve could stop raising the fed funds rate immediately if they wanted to despite the very low unemployment rate. To strive for both low inflation and higher unemployment is to run the risk of turning what should be a mild 2024 recession into a more painful and potentially longer decline. 


    NEW - Three Part Macroeconomics Webcast Series
    This series is free for MHEDA members and will cover topics from inflation to investments. Each webinar will be presented by Alex Chausovsky, Vice President of Analytics & Consulting at Miller Resource Group. Learn more about the sessions or register now!
