While initially the International Monetary Fund projected a 2 to 3% economic growth for the US, Wall Street experts believe that this growth will be slightly higher – ranging in the 4%. The reasoning behind this prediction? According to the latest quarter of 2013, both the public and private sectors were already growing by over 4%. Considering that the country has surpassed its budget battles and that short term interest rates are down to 0%, there really is no reason why we should expect any slowdowns in economic growth.
