Jim Smith has been writing an economic outlook newsletter for over 20 years. Each quarter, Jim sets down his current thinking on a variety of economic topics, from the latest Congressional error (why, oh, why don’t they do sensible things?) to North Carolina budget crises, with topics ranging across the entire economic landscape; housing and employment statistics, regional responses to U.S. trade policies, the most likely impact of a growing China or stagnant Japan or a faltering EuroLand, U.S. retail performance, Social Security, the strength of the dollar, and interest rate forecasts. Read his Outlook and follow the thrills of the yield curve—will an inverted yield curve for 30 days augur a recession? Who knew economic forecasting was filled with such excitement?

If it’s in the news, it’s in Jim’s Outlook. Read the sample newsletter to discover not only Jim's take on current economic news but also his ability to make economic information understandable to the general public.
