Could you please direct me to where I can get more information about Asia's meeting? Foreign Direct Investors' Outlays to Acquire or Establish U.S. Businesses Fell Sharply in 2002 for the Second Year In 2002, outlays by foreign direct investors to acquire or establish U.S. businesses fell by more than half for the second consecutive year. Total outlays were $52.6 billion, down 64 percent from $147.1 billion in 2001 and 84 percent below the record $335.6 billion in 2000, which was the final year of a three-year period of exceptionally high outlays. As a result of these declines, spending for new investments in 2002 was at the lowest level since 1994. The above figures tend to increase the possibility of Asia pulling out. It is unfortunate.
