Real GDP growth has moderated from its recent robust pace and is likely to slow further toward the potential rate in the short term, though leaving the output gap at a positive level. Domestic demand continues to underpin the expansion, boosted by higher employment and real incomes. Inflation is projected to increase somewhat in response to rising cost pressures.
