  Overview
  Please Join the UCLA Anderson Forecast as we update our economic Forecast for 2009-2010. We’ll also be paying special attention to the country’s low savings rate, and detailing the components of financial wealth lost over the last few years. Will that loss impact consumption, investment and savings decisions going forward and therefore impact economic growth? This forecast will also provide a historical perspective on the recovery time for losses in past equity and real estate downturns.
