 <\/p>\n

Free-spending American consumers will be the bright spot in the U.S. economy for the next few years, even as weak foreign buying power and tepid growth in the Gross Domestic Product work against them, according to the latest forecast from the University of Central Florida\u2019s Institute for Economic Competitiveness<\/a>.<\/p>\n

UCF economist Sean Snaith predicts growth in real consumer spending from 2015 to 2018 will average 3 percent.<\/p>\n

\u201cConsumers are not spending as freely as they did in the previous expansion, but have at least loosened their collars and their pocketbooks as well,\u201d Snaith writes in the 2015-2018 \u201cForecast for the Nation.\u201d \u201cThe improvement in consumer spending growth is all the more important now when looking at the other main sectors of the economy, which continue to face headwinds that persistently suppress growth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Those other sectors threaten to push down the economy:<\/p>\n

  • The strong dollar combined with weak GDP growth abroad have eroded foreign spending on U.S. goods and services.<\/li>\n
  • The Federal Reserve is likely to raise interest rates for the first time since 2006; expect baby steps warranted by the nation\u2019s plodding recovery and low inflation.<\/li>\n
  • Real GDP growth will be 2.4 percent in 2015, 2.7 percent in 2016 and 2017, and 2.6 percent in 2018 as the Fed gradually raises interest rates.<\/li>\n

    In keeping with the season, Snaith also uses the holiday film classic \u201cIt\u2019s a Wonderful Life\u201d to provide a primer in the value of community banks. Community banks like the one Jimmy Stewart\u2019s George Bailey runs in the film\u2019s Bedford Falls play an important role in providing small business financing.<\/p>\n

    Snaith maintains that the Dodd-Frank financial regulatory reform law is strangling community banks, threatening their livelihood and that of the small business employers that depend on them.<\/p>\n

    \u201cBedford Falls was a dismal place without the Bailey Building and Loan and our economy is worse off with a community banking sector crippled by excessive regulation,\u201d he writes.<\/p>\n

    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\u2019s benchmark interest rate, the Federal Funds rate.<\/p>\n

    Snaith also is a member of multiple national forecasting panels, including The Wall Street Journal Economic Forecasting Survey, CNNMoney.com\u2019s survey of leading economists, the Associated Press Economy Survey, the National Association of Business Economics Quarterly Outlook Survey Panel, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia\u2019s Survey of Professional Forecasters, the Livingston Survey, Bloomberg U.S. Economic Indicator Survey, Reuters U.S. Economy Survey, and USA Today Economic Survey Panel.<\/p>\n

    The Institute for Economic Competitiveness strives to provide complete, accurate and timely national, state and regional forecasts and economic analyses. Through these analyses, the institute provides valuable resources to the public and private sectors for informed decision-making.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"  Free-spending American consumers will be the bright spot in the U.S. economy for the next few years, even as weak foreign buying power and tepid growth in the Gross Domestic Product work against them, according to the latest forecast from the University of Central Florida\u2019s Institute for Economic Competitiveness.
