	Asia Times: Australia's economy to defy pessimists
		Australia's momentum in 2001 was considerable: its economy expanded at a 4 percent pace in the first three quarters of 2001, compared to a flat performance from the United States and growth of 1 percent in the euro area.
		While the economy will likely slow in the first half of 2002 (to perhaps a 1-2 percent annualized rate), it is doubtful that even a significant decline in export volumes would be sufficient to offset this domestic momentum.
		Australia weathered a much more serious decline in its exports volumes during the Asian economic crisis of mid-1997 to early 1999, with real growth averaging 4.7 percent over that period.
