After Office Hours with Puget Sound Economic Forecaster

James, Hart, Bethany and Cam cover all the big topics affection the economy this quarter. Our population numbers are changing in a real way, what will that mean for our economy including workforce participation numbers. Bethany goes over the very real reasons some young adults are choosing to stay in their parents home while they navigate the early days of their careers.

In concert with that discussion the team dives into the complex onion that is the effect of immigration on our economy. Are we ready for the computers and robots to take over? It's not here just yet, but we are seeing some real impacts in job automation. After all, George Jetson was born last year - so we can't be too far away from our lives with Rosie the Robot!

The group also covers the impact of current inflation rates on the retail sector.

The Housing and Construction market is moving along as forecasted - Bethany updates the team on what is going on in that sector.
