This summer will mark the longest economic recovery in U.S. history. The bull market already made it into the record books for longevity in August of 2018. The S&P 500 and the NASDAQ reached new record highs just this Tuesday.
\nRather than a cause for celebration many economists, business leaders, consumers and investors have viewed these unparalleled achievements as cause for concern. Their thinking: this must mean the end is near.
\nThis week\u2019s guest is not in the end is near camp. Anything but! She has been a believer in the U.S. economy\u2019s recovery capabilities since it emerged from the global financial crisis. Nancy Lazar is Co-Founding Partner and Head of the Economic Research team at Cornerstone Macro, a leading independent macroeconomic investment and policy research firm she launched in 2013. Lazar was one of the first economists to recognize what she dubbed, \u201cAmerica\u2019s Manufacturing Renaissance,\u201d the re-emerging competitive advantage of the United States as a manufacturing base once again. And as China\u2019s economy slowed and America\u2019s strengthened, she saw the U.S. assuming a key role in driving global growth once again, a role ceded to what many concluded was China\u2019s unstoppable ascent.
