On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast™, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with ConstructConnect chief economist Michael Guckes as he details his plans for his new role.
Michael and Waren discussed what’s in store for the economy as summer turns to fall including the possibility of a rate cut from the Federal Reserve as well as the shifting political landscape as the United States heads to a presidential election in November.
Michael also went into detail on his career and how it’s meshed with both construction and economics since the beginning and gave a preview of how he’ll present his economic insights in new ways going forward.
