What's coming and why you should be a DW Agent on Fire:
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.

Visits to physical stores, meanwhile, fell as many retailers offered the same deals online as they did in-store.
