Join us for our Economic Forecast with ABC's Chief Economist, Anirban Basu. This event is in partnership with Associated Builders & Contractors Western Michigan.
As 2026 nears its close, the U.S. economy continues to defy expectations while raising new questions about what comes next. In this fast-paced, data-driven presentation, we will examine the latest trends in employment, housing, commercial real estate, financial markets, and economic output to better understand where the economy is headed through the balance of 2026 and beyond into 2027. Expect fresh insights, a few surprises, and maybe even a laugh or two as we make sense of today’s economy and tomorrow’s risks.
