Poll Reveals Disconnect Between Americans' Economic Perception and Reality A recent Harris poll for The Guardian reveals that a majority of Americans believe the economy is in a recession, although it is not. The poll also shows misconceptions, with nearly half thinking the S&P 500 is down this year and unemployment is at a 50-year high. In reality, the economy is growing, the S&P 500 is up by about 11% in 2024, and unemployment is near historic lows, highlighting a significant disconnect between perception and reality. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Harris to Outline Economic Vision at Chicago Convention READ MORE Gold Consolidates as Markets Await Clues on Fed's Next Move READ MORE What Is the FED Hiding?
