4 percent is a very strong growth rate, and 3 percent inflation is not modest, it is practically nonexistent.

That ain't 'modest' (except by late '90s standards), but let's plug it in to the list of choices: 1) Deflation 2) Continued disinflation (& historic median growth) 3) "Muddle through" economy (low growth, high debt, continued jobs weakness, neither inflation nor deflation) 4) Strong growth (3 - 4%), low and stable inflation 5) Robust real growth rates, modest inflation 6) Inflationary growth (initially strong growth, and rising inflation) 7) Return of Stagflation (slow growth, high inflation)
