The Statistics That Count

Like Chuck Berry, I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA.

Change in GDP:

	2002	2003	2004
Germany	0.2	-0.1	1.1
Euro Area	0.9	0.5	1.6
Japan	-0.3	2.7	3.0
United States	2.2	3.1	4.7

I do not understand the current currency weakness, though Larry Kudlow tries to explain it last night -- but the European currencies are strong because the ECB is too tight with money and the deflationary pressure overvalues their money. Posted by jk at November 11, 2004 04:05 PM
