	Overview
	The 3rd quarter GDP numbers are in, and they continue to amaze. We now have had 10 straight quarters of above average GDP growth. Yet 2006 promises to be an interesting year for our new Federal Reserve chairman, given the current threat of inflation, a record current account deficit and a housing market that is showing definite signs of passing its peak. Come join the UCLA Anderson Forecast as it looks ahead to the coming year.
