'You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet,' an Economist Warns: John Dorfman
Corporate profits have risen eight years in a row. What would happen to the stock
market if they fell? That's a question investors ought to be asking. Profit growth has
been slowing for three years, and now is almost at a standstill. This earnings
slowdown occurred while the U.S. economy was growing fairly fast. But some
economists predict a U.S. economic slowdown in the second half. One who makes a
strong case is Stephen Slifer of Lehman Brothers Inc. The trade deficit is ballooning,
Slifer says, and inventories are building up fast. Put those two things together, and it
makes a second-half slowdown likely. His fears make sense to me.
