Sunny report on 1991 growth and inflation risks
A Business Council forecast from Sunny Springs Va says the U.S. economy could reach a ninth year of peacetime expansion in 1991 if the Fed tolerates inflation above 4.5 percent. Growth slows to about 1.5 percent next quarters, then accelerates to 3 percent by late 1990. Leaders like Walter Shipley and Roger Smith stress strong consumer demand and global growth while Greenspan cautions and notes higher rates restrain construction and investment.
