Registration is open for Monitor’s next Live+ event, “U.S. Economy: Navigating the Signs & the Journey Back,” which will be sponsored by IDS and held on Tuesday, Aug. 25 at 1:00 p.m. ET.

Moderator Robert Moskovitz, CFO of Verdant Commercial Capital and member of the Monitor Editorial Board, will interview economist Elliot Eisenberg, Ph.D. about the depth of the recession and the road to recovery. The following is a sample of the topics they will explore:

• How does this recession compare to the Great Recession?
• Has the economy bottomed out? Where we will go from here?
• Which shape will the recovery take, and which factors will have an impact?
• How will the election impact the recovery?
• What are the indicators that will predict a positive shift in CAPEX?
• Will manufacturers expand domestically in response to supply chain challenges?

“The pandemic has caused continued uncertainty for so many in the equipment finance industry,” Lisa Rafter, publisher of the Monitor, said. “By hosting this livestream with economist Elliot Eisenberg, we will explore the economic challenges we are facing as well as the factors that our industry will need to monitor during in the second half of 2020 as we chart a course toward recovery.”
