Will the US dive in 1995

Article Abstract:

There is concern that a crash could occur on the US stock market in 1995 though no such crash occurred in 1994 despite fears. Morgan Stanley foresees a soft landing for the US economy, with little further rise in inflation, so little need for large rises in interest rates. Merrill Lynch is more concerned about inflation and a possible withdrawal by US mutual fund investors from shares to cash. Kleinwort foresees higher interest rates which could reach 8%, and again is concerned over a possible withdrawal of mutuals.

Wall Street gets the interest rate jitters

Article Abstract:

US share prices fell in Mar 1996 due to concern that interest rates could rise. The consensus had been that rates would fall further, but new data indicates that the US economy is stronger than estimated. This has affected the bond market which in turn has affected shares. Shares later recovered, and not all economists forecast a rate rise. Some argue that capital spending could be cut if bond yields go up, and this would depress economy activity later in 1996.
