growth
Commentators largely framed growth as “fine” but uneven: Variant Perception’s Tian Yang sees US real growth around 1.5–2%, supported by corporate capex dissaving and a neutral-to-slightly positive fiscal impulse, despite elevated inflation constraints 13. Forward Guidance hosts judged economic activity and growth as OK while higher real rates bite and the fiscal impulse fades, arguing mean-reversion in yields is likely even as structural bond headwinds persist 3. Others flagged cracks: Bob Elliott cited signs of consumer exhaustion, and Peter Berezin warned China’s sharply fallen fiscal/credit impulse implies weaker Chinese growth ahead 105. Luke Gromen linked policy choices and a weaker dollar to higher nominal growth, and argued gold-centered settlement could bring inflation and growth; he also warned that allowing higher rates to choke growth would be a policy error 28.
