Zusammenfassung:This 1999 Article IV Consultation highlights that the U.S. real GDP grew by 3.9 percent in 1998, reflecting buoyant consumption and investment spending.

Consumption has been boosted by a sharp fall in personal saving, with the ratio of personal saving to personal disposable income declining to 1\2 percent in 1998, and turning negative in the first quarter of 1999.
