Inflation was top of mind for economists and housing experts on Wednesday, as they shared their predictions for the future of the national and Southern Nevada economy at an event hosted by the UNLV Center for Business and Economic Research (CBER).

Las Vegas visitor volume has steadily increased since the pandemic lows of early 2020, but economic researchers from UNLV predict tourist activity will dip next year.

U.S. central bankers should move “purposefully” and raise interest rates to neutral -- the level which neither speeds up nor slows down the economy -- by the end of the year, Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco President Mary Daly said.
