US economy to lose billions as foreign tourists stay away

The Australian Financial Review
16 Apr

The US economy is set to lose billions of dollars in revenue in 2025 from a pullback in foreign tourism and boycotts of American products, adding to a growing list of headwinds keeping recession risk elevated.

Arrivals of non-citizens to the US by plane dropped almost 10 per cent in March from a year earlier, according to data published Monday by the International Trade Administration. Goldman Sachs estimates in a worst-case scenario, the hit this year from reduced travel and boycotts could total 0.3 per cent of gross domestic product, which would amount to almost $US90 billion.
