December inflation tame and holiday sales slip
Washington reports tame wholesale inflation in December despite a record surge in natural gas costs while holiday retail sales rise a meager 0.1 percent. The Commerce Department revises down October and December activity as shoppers curb spending and inflation cools. President Clinton warns against large tax cuts. President-elect Bush expresses a pessimistic view of the economy and supports a $1.3 trillion tax plan to fight the slowdown.

The government asks the D C Circuit to uphold Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson's breakup order and argues recent remarks show no bias. Microsoft counters by citing statements as evidence, while the Bush transition team signals a broader review of litigation tactics though unlikely before the appeals ruling.
