Kudlow: Economic Growth Could Top Four Percent for ‘a Quarter or Two’
Breitbart ^ | July 18,2018 | Trent Baker

Posted on 07/18/2018 2:19:04 PM PDT by Hojczyk

White House chief economic adviser Larry Kudlow predicted Wednesday at CNBC’s Delivering Alpha conference in New York that economic growth could reach as high as four percent for “a quarter or two.”

Kudlow told CNBC’s Jim Cramer that the Trump administration plans for more tax cuts in the future as the economy gets “strong and prosperous.”

“We are getting 3 [percent] and it may be 4 for a quarter or two — it may be plus, I don’t know,” Kudlow said. “That’s all to the good. Literally millions more people are working.”

He continued, “You’ve got kids, millennials etc. … who have never seen a full-fledged, long-lasting prosperity. Honestly, they don’t know what I’m talking about. … It’s not that they’re cynics, they’ve just never seen it. We haven’t had one in 20 years.”

Right. Before the midterms, not after.
Civil unrest comes after.

Not a fan of calling the shot before it happens, but I’m optimistic.

Where I am the economy got noticeably better starting in Q4 of last year. My income is up 20% in the last year. When I finished my previous project and started looking for new projects a few months ago, I had 5 offers within a month. Things were so bad 3-10 years ago I can’t even compare it. I’d have been overjoyed to have any of the 4 offers I had to turn down this last time a few years ago.

Four percent? No. Three percent is more likely.
