Find Out What Role Will Economy Play in Mid-Term Elections

Dr. Chad Moutray, chief economist for the National Association of Manufacturers, will keynote the Business and Industry Association’s annual economic forecast, The Economy at Midyear. The luncheon event will be held June 6 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Radisson Hotel in Manchester.

Moutray will present his thoughts on what role the economy will play in the 2014 mid-term elections, whether international incidents such as the recent events in Ukraine impact our economy, if some sectors of our economy or regions of the country are performing better than others and address the health of the U.S. manufacturing sector and if there are ways to make it stronger.

As chief economist for the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), Moutray serves as the association’s economic forecaster and spokesperson on economic issues. He frequently comments on current economic conditions for manufacturers through professional presentations and media interviews. He has appeared on Bloomberg News, CNN, C-SPAN, Fox Business, Fox News and Reuters television.

Prior to joining the NAM, Moutray was the chief economist and director of economic research for the Office of Advocacy at the U.S. Small Business Administration. In that role, he was responsible for researching the importance of entrepreneurship in the U.S. economy and highlighting various issues of importance to small business owners, policymakers and academics.
