Outlook for 2006-07: Economic forecast.

The article presents an outlook for the economic condition in Portugal from 2006 to 2007. The economy is expected to recover moderately by 0.7 percent in 2006 due to recovery in business investment. The size of the U.S. current-account deficit and the scale of the capital inflows could renew upward pressure on the euro. Growth in imports is expected to increase due to private investment demand and demand for inputs in the export industries.
