California Bank of Commerce: Economic Forecast with Dr. Chris Thornberg
Thursday, March 5, 2026, 7:30 AM PST – 10:00 AM PST
Cygnet Theatre · 2880 Roosevelt Rd, San Diego, CA 92106, USA
Hosted by Esteemed Coterie of Professionals

Esteemed is pleased to share an upcoming opportunity extended to our members and their guests by our valued partner, California Bank of Commerce. On the morning of Thursday, March 5, 2026, California Bank of Commerce will host an Economic Forecast featuring Dr. Chris Thornberg, Founder of Beacon Economics. The event will take place from 7:30–10:00 AM at the Cygnet Theatre. Dr. Thornberg is widely regarded as one of the most accurate and candid economic forecasters in the country. Known equally for his contrarian instincts and data-driven rigor, he has built a reputation for calling economic trends early—and correctly. While he has been labeled many things throughout his career, his preferred description is simple: accurate. His presentations are consistently packed with insight, clarity, and a refreshing lack of spin. This session will offer attendees a timely and pragmatic look at the economic forces shaping 2026, including growth, inflation, labor dynamics, and regional considerations that matter to business owners and leaders. Dr. Thornberg’s ability to translate complex economic data into clear, actionable perspective makes this event particularly valuable for CEOs, founders, and senior executives navigating strategic decisions in an uncertain environment. The morning will include breakfast and networking, followed by Dr. Thornberg’s presentation. Esteemed members are encouraged to attend and to bring a guest who would benefit from a grounded, intellectually honest view of the economic landscape ahead.
