Pieter Stalenhoef was interested by the recent comments by Federal Reserve officials that brought focus to a largely optimistic view of the US economy for the upcoming year. The comments also reminded him of the program in which speaking with Bloomberg Television in early January 2020, the Cleveland Fed President had admitted that even though geopolitical uncertainties had increased, the fundamentals driving the economy continued to look strong. According to Pieter Stalenhoef, the major area of concern is the manufacturing sector as it has unexpectedly posted its lowest level of economic activity in a decade. He described this contraction
as slight and not impacting the resiliency of a diversified US economy and is quite relieved to know that while the business investment may still be sluggish, the Dallas Fed President has already noted that US consumer spending retains strength that is expected to push growth in the two to 2.5 percent range throughout 2020.
