 This is CBS Eye on the World. I'm John Batchelor. The first half of 2024 is complete. The second quarter is in the books. We'll see what the numbers are in several weeks' time. Right now, the Federal Reserve, Atlanta reporting, says the second quarter estimate is 2.2%, neither fair nor foul. I welcome Jim McTague, longtime Washington editor for Barron's Magazine, now a novelist living in Lancaster County, the best county in the best state, the Keystone State.
