CBO projects sluggish recovery after sharp GDP drop
The Congressional Budget Office warns the U S economy will shrink 38 percent annualized in Q2 with unemployment around 15 percent and about 26 million fewer jobs than late 2019. Recovery remains slow, with GDP and employment still below 2019 levels by late 2021. Consumer spending plunged as many businesses closed and stay at home orders persisted.
