5 January 2001, 10:07 Bush says economy needs kick-start; is optimistic on high-tech stocks
Washington--Jan. 4--President-elect Bush Thursday continued to voice
his dour assessment of the U.S. economy, saying it needs a "kick-start"
and that his broad tax cut may need to be implemented more quickly than he
previously thought. Bush also said the Federal Reserve's decision
Wednesday to cut short-term interest rates was not intended to discourage
the enactment of tax cuts.
