Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan told Congress the economy likely escaped a near-term recession and should grow modestly this year. He warned growth will be weaker than the Bush administration projects, potentially jeopardizing deficit reduction hopes. Markets moved lower on his remarks as investors priced in higher rates and slower growth. He cited early 1990 data showing a tentative rebound, but noted inflation remains a concern and policy may tighten to curb it if needed.
