Main Street Bank, Dr. Edmond Seifried Ph. D, and Jamie Sumner Hosts GDP-50-NOW™ and Release Latest State-Level Economic Update

WOOSTER, Ohio, May 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GDP-50-NOW™, a state-level economic monitoring service, released its latest update today, highlighting a growing divergence between national economic signals and state-level economic momentum across the United States. There are numerous national forecasts of economic growth provided by some of the regional Federal Reserve Banks. While these forecasts are very valuable to decision-makers, they may miss important state-level macroeconomic changes. GDP-50-NOW™attempts to bring the same virtual national GDP forecasting down to the state level to correct the possibility of significant divergence of national and state economic forecasts.
