Abstract: The article provides information on international business conditions as of August 1990. The production index has remained the same. The output of coal, rail-freight traffic, paperboard, paper, lumber and electric power fell on a seasonally adjusted basis. The output of steel and crude-oil refining was unchanged. Stock prices and the growth rates for real estate declined. On the other hand, bond yields and business failures increased. Charts of production indicators, foreign exchange and monthly economic indicators are provided.
