The United States’ economic growth remained buoyant throughout 2023 amid stronger-than-expected consumer spending and falling inflation. However, the report expects real gross domestic product (GDP) growth to slow from 2.5% in 2023 to 2.2% in 2024 amid the delayed effects of monetary policy tightening on domestic spending. The United States will remain the world’s largest economy until 2030, with nominal GDP forecast to reach $35.4 trillion under the baseline and $36.7 trillion under the accelerated scenario.Localized Manufacturing, Innovation, and Long-term Policy Thrust on Infrastructure and Green Energy Will Be Crucial Growth Determinants
