SPEAKER: William Strauss, Chicago Federal Reserve Bank

William Strauss is a Senior Economist and Economic Advisor in the Economic Research Department at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, which he joined in 1982. His chief responsibilities include analyzing the current performance of both the Midwest economy and the manufacturing sector for use in monetary policy. He produces the monthly Chicago Fed Midwest Manufacturing Index and organizes the Bank's Economic Outlook Symposium and Automotive Outlook Symposium. Bill was also the economic speaker at the 2011 PMPA Annual Meeting.

Mr. Strauss reviews 2012’s economic performance – its slow expansion, stalled manufacturing, the slack that remains in the labor market, real estate, etc., inflation, monetary policies, and then takes a look at where this is all headed in 2013! Don’t miss this economic update and how it will affect your business in the coming year.
