Summary

The U.S. economy has proven resilient in the face of the significant tightening of both fiscal and monetary policy in 2022. Consumer demand has held up particularly well, boosted initially by a drawdown of pent-up savings and, more recently, by solid growth in real disposable incomes. Policy restraint is expected to continue to slow the economy in 2023 with a modest pick-up in momentum later in 2024. Unemployment is expected to rise slowly to close to 4½ percent by end-2024.
