A group of economists surveyed by the National Association for Business Economics in the group’s year-end forecast survey indicated that the United States will experience slight economic growth in 2026.
Likewise, the 42 specialists surveyed between the 3rd and 11th of this month predict that inflation will remain stable, although job creation will be slow.
“Respondents cite tariff impacts as the greatest downside risk to the US economic outlook, considering both the probability of occurrence and the potential impact.”
Growth could be affected or restricted by stricter immigration measures. “While increased productivity is considered the most likely factor to boost growth above forecasts.”
Inflation is expected to reach 2.9 % by year-end “and decline only slightly to 2.6 % next year, with tariffs accounting for between a quarter of a percentage point and almost three-quarters of a percentage point of that figure.”
