Description

Key changes: We’ve lowered our forecast for US 2026 GDP by 0.1ppt to a 2.2% expansion, but still expect growth will pick up to 2.7% next year as the squeeze on households' real incomes fades and productivity growth accelerates. Higher energy prices mean we now expect headline inflation to fade more slowly, but we’ve revised down our forecasts for core inflation modestly.
