Surge in business equipment production signals increasing capital investment, which could be the precursor to higher productivity, wages, and long-term U.S. economic growth.
“The United States is blessed with a wealth of natural resources,” the report states. “Enacting policies that make the most of U.S. resource abundance and promote U.S. energy dominance can meaningfully contribute to economic growth and consumer welfare.”
In the past six months, a chorus of analysts and commentators warned of an impending collapse of the U.S. economy. Many predicted that persistent inflation, high interest rates, and ballooning government deficits would drag growth to a halt and trigger a recession. However, the data tell a different story: the United States demonstrates economic strength, fiscal control, and improving inflation expectations.
Despite facing a proverbial “perfect storm” with recession fears, stock market volatility, and talk of tariffs — all multiplied by constant media attacks — recent polling data shows that more Americans view the Republican Party as being better equipped to handle the economy compared to the Democratic Party.

America may be just about done with Joe Biden, but the malevolent economic legacy of his presidency is not done with us.
Now Trump owns the problem: Direct action on inflation, as well as public statements on the issue, have been notably absent from the opening act.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell told lawmakers Tuesday that the central bank sees little urgency to lower interest rates, citing a resilient labor market and lingering inflation risks.
We already knew that most economists are quite bad at economic policy. Unfortunately, foreign policy appears not to be much of a strength either. Indeed, it appears most financial experts may not even know the difference, based on their criticism of Donald Trump’s recent tariff threats against Mexico, Canada and China.
