Deutsche Bank has just revealed a warning, saying that the US recession is imminent. Check out the latest details about this below.

An economist from one of Europe’s largest banks predicts that the US may face a difficult landing and recession.

According to the analysis by Folkerts-Landau’s team, the Fed is likely to cause a decrease in inflation leading to a recession, which will eventually lead to a rate cut by March 2024.

The analysts anticipate that the Fed will reduce rates in a similar manner to how they raised them in the past year and a half, possibly in increments of 50 to 75 basis points until they reach 2.625%.

The Deutsche Bank analysts made sure to highlight the fact that artificial intelligence (AI) could, later in the decade, be the one source of growth for the US in otherwise stagnant economic conditions.

“Given a poor cyclical outlook, low productivity, and declining demographics, we are in desperate need of a new source of growth…”
