 Dr. Snaith is the Director of the University of Central Florida’s Institute for Economic Forecasting and a nationally recognized economist in the field of business and economic forecasting.  An award-winning forecaster, researcher and professor, Snaith applies academic expertise to solve real-world problems. He has served as a consultant for local governments and multi-national corporations such as Compaq, Dell and IBM.  Snaith holds a Ph.D. in Economics from Pennsylvania State University.  Snaith frequently is interviewed in national and regional media and is a sought-after speaker. He has been quoted in The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, The New York Times, The Economist and CNNMoney.com and has appeared on CNBC, Fox Business Network and Business News Network, based in Toronto.  Sean correctly called the end of the great financial crisis in June 2009. Prior to that, Snaith was named by Bloomberg News as one of the nation's most accurate forecasters in 2008. In 2007, he was named California’s most accurate forecaster by the Western Blue Chip Consensus Forecast.  In this episode, we will talk about the Fed, inflation, and discuss how we are headed for a pasta-bowl recession. We focus the rest of the episode on the state of Florida and potential headwinds to growth such as rising housing costs, supply chain shortages, labor market shortages, and high overall inflation. Last, we discuss ways the state of Florida (and particularly Central Florida) can best position itself for future growth.  Our host today is Steve Curley, CFA, prior President of CFA Society Orlando, current board member &amp; co-founder of The Investors First Podcast. Please enjoy the episode.

84. UCF Institute for Economic Forecasting Director Dr. Sean Snaith

A media darling of sorts, UCF economist Sean Snaith's presentations across Central Florida tend to be an 80/20 mix of economic forecasting and comedy sketches. But the Director of the UCF Institute for Economic Forecasting means business - his forecasts have been named one of the nation's most accurate. This episode takes a "behind-the-scenes" look at Snaith's forecasting methods while exploring his thoughts on the state of the Florida economy in 2020.Featured Guests 	Sean Snaith - Director, UCF Institute for Economic Forecasting 	Erika Hodges - Director, Communications &amp; Marketing, UCF College of Business 	Jessica Dourney - Assistant Director, Outreach &amp; Engagement, UCF College of BusinessEpisode Highlights 	1:48 - Paul Jarley introduces Sean Snaith 	2:37 - What the Florida economy is going through 	3:28 - Commentary from the "Mean Girls" 	4:14 - Florida's housing market 	07:04 - Sean Snaith: "King of the Nerds" 	11:09 - Growth by industry in Florida 	15:06 - Job and population growth in the state 	17:01 - Questions from the audience 	21:30 - Paul Jarley's final thoughtsEpisode TranscriptionPaul Jarley:                         Sean Snaith is central Florida's favorite economic forecaster. Sean has been named one of the nation's most accurate forecasters by Bloomberg News and as appeared on pretty much every media outlet from the Wall Street Journal to the BBC. But he has some very strange hobbies.Sean Snaith:                       If you've heard me speak over the years, you know I have an affinity for SkyMall.Paul Jarley:                         You remember SkyMall, It's the defunct inflight shopping catalog that survives on the internet. Well, Sean, he might just be their biggest fan.Sean Snaith:                       The Dean called it a fetish, I think, last year, which, that sounds a little dirty.Paul Jarley:                         He's also a bit of a diva who dreams of becoming a viral internet sensation?Sean Snaith:                       So, everybody can't be a social influencer though. I mean, I think that's where they all want to be. I do too. Quite frankly, I've got 1300 on Twitter. I don't know what I can offer to them, but.Paul Jarley:                         And he hates being handled, especially by the college's so called mean girls.Sean Snaith:                       There's a group of, largely women, in the college of business and there'll be shaking you down for money here at the end of the event, but I like to refer to them collectively as the mean girls and they sort of followed me since middle school and they make fun of my clothing and my glasses and things like that.Speaker 3:                           I don't know if you've seen his PowerPoint slides, but we think they date back to the mid 1980s.Paul Jarley:                         Is Sean Snaith really worth all this trouble? Are those forecasts right? Or do those mean girls have a point?Speaker 4:                           That is so fetch.Speaker 5:                           Gretchen, stop trying to make fetch happen. It's not going to happen.Paul Jarley:                         This issue is all about separating hype from fundamental change. I'm Paul Jarley, Dean of the College of Business here at UCF, I've got lots of questions. To get answers, I'm talking to people with interesting insights into the future of business. Have you ever wondered, is this really a thing? Onto our show.Paul Jarley:                         This podcast is a condensed version of a talk Sean gave at our recent Dean Speaker Series, where he provided his economic forecast for both the US and Florida economies. Since Sean had already weighed in on the US economy as part of our podcast on whether the 2020 recession is really a thing, we focused today's show on his predictions for the Florida economy.
