Midyear Economic Forecast

Looking back, the American consumers led the U.S. economy out of the recession of 2001. They kept buying houses. They kept buying cars. They kept buying clothes. They kept buying computers and cell phones. They even returned to the airports. But now, American consumers are tired. They already have refinanced their debt and tapped out their home equity lines of credit. They also are absorbing a quadruple threat of rising energy costs, fuel costs, interest rates and health care costs. Consumer bankruptcies and mortgage foreclosures are skyrocketing. As consumer demand slows, so too will the U.S. economy in the second half of 2006, according to Clare Zempel, Milwaukee's foremost economist.
