Forward guidance
PNC expects U.S. economic growth to slow further in 2020. Slower global economic growth, trade tensions, reduced fiscal stimulus, and aerospace production cuts are the primary drivers of softer U.S. growth.
Tailwinds
- Job growth will continue in 2020, but at a slower pace from 2019 due to both difficulty in finding workers and slower economic growth.
- The unemployment rate is expected to increase slightly in the near term, but the labor market will remain tight, pushing wages higher and supporting continued gains in consumer spending.
- Inflation slowed in 2019, to below the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC’s) 2 percent objective, but is expected to gradually increase over the next two years.
- We do not expect further federal funds rate cuts in 2020.
- The federal funds rate is modestly positive for near-term economic growth in its current range of 1.50 to 1.75 percent.
Headwinds
- Near-term risks are generally to the downside, including a further softening in the global economy, a further escalation in trade tensions, and geopolitical concerns.
- Slower global economic growth
- Trade tensions
- Reduced fiscal stimulus
- Aerospace production cuts
