John,

A curious fact of life that market research firms almost always include a declining rate of growth in their forecasts.

I made a similar observation about economists. The British magazine Economists polls economists around the world about their predictions for GDP growth rates of industrial countries. They have a prediction for 1 and 2 years out. Economist then takes the average.

It has been my observation that any country growing faster than about 2.8% has a prediction of it's growth slowing and any country growing slower than that will have a prediction of accelerated growth.
