Abstract

After another quarter it seems clear that the slowdown is continuing but probably at a slower rate than many commentators first expected. However, the form of the slowdown does give cause for concern both for the prospects of a 'soft landing' and for the balance of payments. Inflation pressures appear, for the moment, to be contained.
