US Economy in a Rare Historical Moment
=====================================================
The US economy is currently experiencing a rare and unique moment in its history, according to Deutsche Bank’s Chief Global Strategist Binky Chadha. This phenomenon is characterized by a combination of low unemployment rates and moderate GDP growth.
A Rare Balance of Unemployment and Growth
As Chadha points out, the current balance between unemployment and GDP growth is extremely rare historically. “What we got really is an economic outcome that is very rare historically,” he says. “It’s really the combination of unemployment and GDP [highlight]gross domestic product[/highlight] growth.” The US has experienced a period of 3% GDP growth for the last two years, which is lower than its previous levels of around 4%.
The Impact of This Balance
This balance between unemployment and growth drives fundamental volatility in the economy. As Chadha argues, “It is that combination that drives fundamental volatility, argues it should come down, should be lower.” He characterizes this balance as an “economic nirvana” of sorts, which is infrequent in history.
A Rare Moment in Economic History
The current economic situation is a rare moment in US economic history. As Chadha notes, “What we got really is an economic outcome that is very rare historically.” This moment has been echoed by Wall Street Journal chief economics correspondent Nick Timiraos, who shares a similar sentiment.
