Show Notes
Californias economy is booming, with a 3.8% growth rate, but job growth is sluggish, with unemployment hovering above 5% for nearly two years. This creates a split economy, with strong sectors like AI and aerospace leading, while construction, retail, and hospitality lag. Hiring is picking up in aerospace and computer design, and port activity has rebounded. However, housing construction faces challenges. Unemployment is expected to average 5.6% this year, dropping to 4.8% by 2027. Job growth should hit 0.9% soon, then rise to over 2%. Nationally, growth could near 3% with risks of overheating.
