Jim Popp
CEO, Johnson Financial Group
“The Fed’s decision to cut rates by 50 basis points provides relief to borrowers and may spur manufacturers to consider additional investment and/or expansion. However, interest rates are just one lever impacting manufacturing. There are many other factors impacting consumer and business sentiment, including a pretty big election in November.”
