SUMMARY:FFB Bank - Economic Outlook for Manufacturing in 2026
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \n\n\nHosted by FFB Bank & San Joaquin Valley Manufacturing Alliance \n\n\n\n\nThe economy is always changing—are you ready for what’s next? Join us for an eye-opening discussion with renowned economist Dr. Christopher Thornberg as he unpacks the biggest trends shaping in 2026. Expect bold predictions\, data-driven insights\, and real talk about the future of manufacturing this year! \n\nDate: May 7\, 2026\nStart Time: 12:00 PM\nLunch Buffet Included\n\nEnjoy great food\, great company\, and a front-row seat to the economic forecast you won’t want to miss. Reserve your spot today! \nMore about Dr. Thornberg \nDr. Christopher Thornberg has been called many things throughout his career\, but his favorite thing to be called is correct. \nNotably\, he predicted the collapse of the sub-prime real estate bubble in 2006 and the Great Recession that followed. During the Covid-19 pandemic he was one of the few economists on record to correctly push back against the forecasting community’s panicked predictions of a depression. In the past two years\, he has again stood against the grain\, and stood out\, for accurately forecasting that there \nwould be no recession. \nDr. Thornberg left a teaching position at UCLA’s Business School in 2006 to found Beacon Economics\, and under his leadership\, the firm has become one of the nation’s most respected economic research organizations. He consults globally for private industry\, cities\, counties\, and public agencies. A dynamic public speaker\, he challenges audiences to question popular narratives – and to ask the right economic questions.
