As noted by the group of economists from a banking company, Goldman Sachs, the American economy seems to gain traction next year. The United States demonstrates a robust momentum that could possibly lift inflation and wages extensively, however, this requires the Fed Reserve to increase its rates four times in 2018. The banking firm upgraded its projected growth rate by 2.5 percent next year but trimmed down its unemployment outlook to 3.7 percent at the end of 2018, as mentioned by Goldman chief economist Jan Hatzius. On the other hand, prior the recent adjustment of Goldman’s 2018 forecast, it came in at 2.4 percent based on predictions from Bloomberg. The US unemployment rate is expected to achieve 3.5 percent in late 2019 against 4.1 percent in October, this is regarded to be the lowest growth since the late 1960s. The New York-based company decided to contend the market expectations due to the “little evidence” they noticed linked with the structural nature of soft inflation. They added that the core inflation should rise in 2018 nearly by half percentage point to 1.8 percent as 2017 ends. Moreover, the U.S. Federal Reserve increased four times higher its target level for federal funds rate since December 2015. While futures trading will further increase by quarter-percentage-point in December during the final meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee.
