Date Time Economist: U.S. poised for rebound with vaccines, stimulus Look for the U.S. economy to bounce back in 2021 from its most severe challenges since the Great Depression, a recovery that would benefit from continued federal relief and stimulus spending, according to a Cornell economist. “(This year) is going to be so much better than 2020,” said Steven Kyle, associate professor in the Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management, part of the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business. “You will think you’re in a different universe.” Kyle presented his annual projection for the national economy at Dyson’s 2021 Agricultural and Food Business Outlook Conference, held virtually Jan. 25. The conference also featured presentations on New York’s farm workforce and markets for dairy, fruit, vegetables and wine.
