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.

No, I go with "no one can predict the future in a way that is useful in investment forecasting".

Just like Harry Browne did.
