The Post-Coronavirus Mid-America
& Rural Mainstreet Economies:  Opportunities and Threats


Tuesday, January 26, 2021
12:30-1:30 p.m. ET

Creighton’s monthly surveys of manufacturers in nine Mid-America states, and of Bank CEOs in 10 Rural Mainstreet states, indicate that the economy of the mid-section of the nation is improving, but economic activity and employment remain below pre-Covid-19 levels.   Surveys point to a return to pre-Covid-19 economic levels in the second half of 2021.  What will the post-Covid-19 economy look like in terms of jobs, trade, inflation, interest rates, and economic growth?  Will the economic downturn and bounce back resemble a V, W, or a check mark?

 

Ernie Goss, Ph.D. is the Jack MacAllister Chair in Economics at Creighton University.  He is also principal of the Goss Institute in Denver, Colo. Dr. Goss, a U.S. military veteran, is a former faculty research fellow at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. He was a visiting scholar with the Congressional Budget Office.  He has published more than 100 research studies focusing primarily on economic forecasting and  on the statistical analysis of business and economic data. His book Changing Attitudes Toward Economic Reform During the Yeltsin Era was published by Praeger Press, and his book Governing Fortune: Casino Gambling in America was published by the University of Michigan Press.

 

He is editor of Economic Trends, an economics newsletter published monthly with more than 10,000 subscribers, produces a monthly business conditions index for the nine-state Mid-American region, and conducts a survey of bank CEOs in 10 U.S. states. Survey and index results are cited each month in approximately 100 newspapers; citations have included the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Investors Business Daily, The Christian Science Monitor, Chicago Sun Times, and other national and regional newspapers and magazines. Each month 75-100 radio stations carry his Regional Economic Report.
