Risking too much of a good thing
Article Abstract:
The US economy is expected to experience a gradual decline in the second and third quarter of 1995. The federal reserve will wait for the economy to turn around before changing its monetary policy, while exports are expected to increase. In related news, the steep drop in the US dollar rate was caused by investors releasing their supplies of American dollars in favor of Deutsche Marks and Japanese Yens. The resulting oversupply lowered the currency rate.

The slowdown vanishes
Article Abstract:
Continued strong economic growth is being seen for the US economy for 1997. A growth of 3.6% was posted for 1997 second quarter due to greater exports and economic advantages brought about by consumer spending and business investments. No recession and a slower economic growth are being predicted to happen in 1998. The economic slowdown forecasted is being attributed to the tightening of the Fed in late 1997 and early 1998.
