The “WFG Quarterly Economic Outlook,” a webinar featuring Williston Financial Group founder and Executive Chairman Patrick Stone and Economist and Forbes contributor Dr. Bill Conerly, will expand to an hour for 2022.
The series, which began in the first months of the COVID pandemic, was designed to stimulate the real-time exchange of ideas and information about current concerns, trends and potential directions for the real estate, lending and title insurance industries. Questions submitted in advance by industry stakeholders across the country were culled and organized to create the Q&A conversation, with Stone and Conerly alternating their responses and sometimes providing follow-up questions of their own.
“This has become a popular and I believe valuable national forum,” Stone said in a release. “Bill and I bring many years of experience, both as business leaders and analysts, in various aspects of the housing industry and U.S. economy. We have had a positive response from industry, media and government representatives for our efforts to offer balanced perspectives on the challenges facing us.”
In the October 2021 podcast, Stone and Conerly answered questions about the outlook for the global economy, real estate and lending, and the title industry, as well as the pandemic’s ongoing impact.
“I want to thank everybody for your questions,” Stone said in October, “because that helps us stay really attuned to what’s pertinent and what you’re worried about.”
The first 2022 webinar will be Feb. 23. Reservations are required and can be made here.
