Falling growth does not mean the economy is contracting. It merely means that the rate of increase is slowing. How much it slows is something we can't know yet, but it is exactly what we've been expecting for months as we watched bond yields drop. One reason I think the current enviro...
Relative to the 2020M02 nationwide peak, as of July Wisconsin NFP is down 3.8%, as compared to 3.7% nationwide. The dualistic nature of the recovery persists, with high contact services employment remaining more depressed than that for goods production. The recovery in leisure and...
