If one word sums up the economy in the second half of 2025, that word would be “precarious”. Granted, the U.S. unemployment rate holds reasonably steady at 4.2%, inflation appears to be cooling (albeit slowly – it’s been very stubborn) and GDP during the second quarter of 2025 was positive at 3% following a -0.5% growth in the first quarter, a result that was significantly warped by anticipation of tariffs coming into play and associated import activity (imports actually factor as negative in terms of GDP).
