US economy
WASHINGTON, Sept 30: White House economic adviser Glenn Hubbard on Monday said the US economy is in recovery, with the long-awaited rebound in business investment likely to kick in during the fourth quarter.
“The economy has a recovery that’s underway,” Hubbard said in remarks to the National Association of Business Economics conference here, adding that his view is in line with private-sector economists. He also said: “I do believe that we will see an investment recovery coming in the fourth quarter.”
