REUTERS/Evelyn Hockstein/File PhotoChief Executive Officer Brian Moynihan said on Tuesday the U.S. economy would reach a technical recession starting in the third quarter.
Moynihan told The Financial Review's Business Summit in Sydney a U.S. recession would not be deep and the bank forecast interest rates would start falling in the second quarter of 2024. The bank expects three quarters of negative U.S. growth led by a corporate slowdown, with the consumer sector in good shape, he said.
"Our base projection is for a recession to occur in the U.S. economy beginning in the third quarter of 2023, occur through the fourth quarter of 2023 and into the first quarter of 2024," Moynihan said."It's a very slight recession in the scheme of things. I don't think you'll see a deep recession," he said.
"In our view that is based on a corporate side or a commercial side slowdown, not a consumer side slowdown."
