Charlotte Economics Club
Would like to invite
you to a luncheon on
Wednesday, February 15, 2012
with special guest
speaker
Jan Hatzius
Chief Economist,
Goldman Sachs
Jan Hatzius will present on
Goldman’s 2012 Outlook. The US
economic outlook has improved a bit.
Congress has extended the payroll
tax cut and unemployment
benefits-only for 2 months so far,
but the chance is high that a
full-year extension will follow.
Goldman Sachs’ financial conditions
index is close to the levels of
2011Q2, before the intensification
of the Euro crisis. However
Goldman’s new forecast looks for
slightly below-trend growth of 2% in
Q1, followed by a further modest
deceleration to 1.5% in Q2. The main
reason for this downward trajectory
is that Goldman does not believe
that the 3.0%+ pace for Q4 2011 is a
reasonable estimate of the economy’s
underlying trend and GS current
activity indicator and income-side
real GDP have been weaker than
expenditure-side real GDP recently.
Second, tight oil supplies in 2012
are likely to act as a “speed limit”
on global growth.
Members and Guests are invited
to register today to meet Jan Hatzius, network with colleagues
and enjoy a great lunch with the
best views of the city of Charlotte.
