Although consumers&#8217; spending has increased since the recession officially ended in 2009, the rate at which people are buying continues to be slow, he said.<\/p>\n<p>In spite of all the bad economic news, Snaith still believes the country will avoid a double-dip recession &#8212; especially if policymakers dust off their vinyl records and listen to Foghat.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The recovery is unfortunately going to remain a &#8216;slow ride,&#8217; and policymakers would be well advised to &#8216;take it easy,'&#8221; Snaith said.<\/p>\n<p>Snaith&#8217;s full U.S. forecast is available on his website at <a href=\"https:\/\/business.ucf.edu\/centers-institutes\/institute-economic-competitiveness\/\">http:\/\/www.iec.ucf.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Highlights of his report include:<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; The level of real GDP in the economy during 2010 will be about 2.6 percent higher than in 2009, and real GDP growth will slow to 2 percent in 2011 as consumers keep struggling with ravaged balance sheets and the &#8220;little labor market that couldn&#8217;t.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Unemployment, a lagging indicator of the business cycle, will remain at least 9 percent through the rest of the year before falling gradually to 8.2 percent by the end of 2013.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; The U.S. dollar is expected to oscillate vis-\u00e0-vis major trading partners, ending 2013 at about the same level that it started in 2010. The financial crisis in the European Union appears to have been stemmed, and the Euro has been rescued from oblivion.<\/p>\n<p>Snaith is a national expert in economics, forecasting, market sizing and economic analysis who authors quarterly reports about the state of the economy. Bloomberg News has named Snaith as one of the country\u2019s most accurate forecasters for his predictions about the Federal Reserve&#8217;s benchmark interest rate, the Federal Funds rate.<\/p>\n<p>Snaith is also a member of several national forecasting panels, including The Wall Street Journal Economic Forecasting Survey, CNNMoney.com&#8217;s survey of economists, the Associated Press Economy Survey, the National Association of Business Economics Quarterly Outlook Survey Panel, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia&#8217;s Survey of Professional Forecasters, Bloomberg U.S. Economic Indicator Survey and USA Today Economic Survey Panel.<\/p>\n<p>The UCF Institute for Economic Competitiveness&#8217; mission is to expand public understanding of the economy by convening business leaders, scholars, policy makers, civic groups and media to discuss critical issues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"U.S. policymakers should take their cues from the classic rock band Foghat as the economic recovery unfolds, says University of Central Florida economist Sean Snaith.
