Babsons 1984 Economic Outlook Points to Steady Expansion
Babsons forecasts 1984 real GNP rising about 5 percent per quarter with a 54 percent calendar year gain, driven by steadier growth, higher consumer income, and firmer business investment. Industrial production should rise about 5 percent, new housing stays high but not surging, and inventories lift to support expansion. Unemployment drifts down modestly, inflation stays creeping, and profits rise with dividends possibly increasing. The Dow could trade around 1150 to 1450, aided by profits improvement and investor confidence.
