2015年的美国经济：增长持续 风险犹存

Abstract:In 2015，American economic growth felt the impact of the dramatic fall of international oil prices and the continuing appreciation of the US dollar since latter half of 2014. Its growth rate is roughly the same as the last year，with employment situation continued to improve and inflation rate stayed low. The housing sector maintained on the recovery path and private consumption was still the main driver of the growth，consumer expenditure expanded further but with a slower pace. Private investment grew with a relatively low pace，and the export went down obviously. In the second half of 2015，corporate profits suffered due to the sluggish business investment，industrial production indexes were weak，and the volatility of financial market continued its way，standing in contrast with the strong job data. The Federal Reserve was forced to weigh different policy choices with more cautious，adjusting to the complicated domestic and international economic environment. Risks associated with monetary policy are likely to grow in 2016.
