Sheets presented an overview of the global economy and offered thoughts on the current Administration’s international economic policies. He outlined a list of his concerns and emphasized, “if we don’t lead, other countries are going to.” Sheets also discussed three possible outcomes for fiscal policy, which included scenarios involving “tax reform”, “fiscal stimulus” and “gridlock.”
