United States - Economic forecast summary (November 2017) --
Source: OECD.org
The economic expansion is projected to continue in 2018 and 2019.
Buoyant asset prices and strong business and consumer confidence will
support consumption and investment growth. The impact of slowing
employment growth on consumption will be partly offset by wage growth
acceleration as the labour market tightens further.
Fiscal policy is projected to become more supportive in 2018 as
measures are assumed to be introduced lowering tax rates on corporate
and personal income and stimulating investment and consumption. At a
time when unemployment is at its lowest level since 2000, the assumed
fiscal boost will also contribute to further wage growth, thereby
providing the conditions for monetary policy to continue normalising
gradually. Policies to help people return to employment would underpin
stronger growth of activity while reducing inequalities. Deregulation
and tax reform would support stronger investment and help lift
productivity.

Cyber Monday is shaping up to be the largest online shopping day in U.S. history
Online sales soared to record highs this Thanksgiving weekend, as
more Americans used their smartphones and tablets to shop from home.
More
than half of the weekend’s online purchases were placed on mobile
devices, according to data from Adobe Analytics, which measures online
transactions by the 100 largest U.S. Web retailers. Visits to physical
stores, meanwhile, fell as many retailers offered the same deals online
as they did in-store.
As of 10 a.m. Monday, Americans had spent
nearly $14 billion online since Thanksgiving Day, when many companies
started their Black Friday sales. More than half of those purchases came
from mobile devices, Adobe reported.
The
company added that Cyber Monday was expected to be
the biggest online
shopping day in history. As of 10 a.m., retailers had racked up $840
million in online sales, a 17 percent increase from last year.
