TITLE
Where Are We in Economic Recovery and Where Are We Heading For?
ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic hit Hawaii hard in April 2020. The unemployment rate reached a historical high of 22.4%, over 60% of firms closed for business, and visitor arrivals decreased by 99.4%.
Three years into the pandemic, how has Hawaii’s economy been performing and are we heading for a recession in 2023?
Dr. Eugene Tian will tell us the current economic recovery status and the outlook for 2023 and beyond.
