U.S. Economic Outlook 2016: GDP, Debt, Inflation, Interest Rates
For 2016 and beyond, all official U.S. Economic Forecasts call for stronger growth ahead. But, economic output is not the only variable on the rise. Inflation, debt levels, interest rates, and market valuations are also increasing. What does this mean for investors?

It means absolutely nothing, because those forecasts aren't worth the bits used to report them.
