How- ever, a number of new elements emerged compared with the previous years. In the United States, although on a yearly average the economy reported a strong progress, yet in the mid quarters it experienced a harsh slowdown. On the con- trary, Euroland put an end to a long period of stagnation and confirmed the re- covery of the economic cycle starting from the second half of 2005. Oil prices reached a new peak in the first half of the year, but then started to creep down- wards, and closed at slightly lower levels than at the beginning of the year. In the United States, Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the first quarter reported at first an annual growth rate of 5.6%, and then started to slow down around mid-year as a result of decreasing consumption and investment rates, especially in the residential sector. Preliminary data point at an annual average growth rate of 3.3%, which is but a fraction higher than in 2005. The trade deficit contin- ued to widen, although at a slower pace compared with the recent past: as a percentage of GDP it remained stable with respect to the previous year (5.8%). In Asia, the Chinese and Indian economies maintained highly sustained growth rates. The good performance enjoyed by Latin American countries continued, fa- vored by the high prices of raw materials on international markets. In 2006, the Euro Area consolidated the economic recovery that had started in the second half of the previous year: the annual average GDP growth rate should be around 2.6%, close to its growth potential. Inflation, which in autumn was curbed by the oil price decrease, started to accelerate once again towards the end of the year. On a yearly average, the HCPI (harmonized consumer price index) grew by 2.2%. For 2007, most economic projections point at a continuation of the economic expansionary phase, albeit at a slightly slower rate. In the United States the real estate market outlook is raising concerns, as after a few years of staggering growth, it started to show some signs of weariness. Euroland’s economy is ex- pected to go on growing, as in 2006, close to its full potential. Italy The Italian economy got through a very difficult 2005 and started to grow again. The growth gap with the other main European economies narrowed significant- ly, although a slightly negative differential persists. In 2006, GDP is expected to have increased by 1.9%, while in the previous year growth had been practically equal to zero. The economic expansion was partic- ularly strong in the first quarter (+0.8% as compared with the previous quarter), as well as in the fourth quarter of the year (+1.1% based on the economic cy- cle and +2.9% in terms of growth trend). This result was favored in particular by the recovery of household spending, just as in the past its weakness had been 17 Report on Group operations one of the main causes underlying economic stagnation. Fixed investments, af- ter being quite lively at the beginning of the year, started to slow down from summer on. Exports kept on satisfactory growth levels throughout the year. The manufacturing industry made its contribution to the positive economic cy- cle. In 2006, the industrial output index adjusted for working days increased by 2.4%. Particularly buoyant dynamics were reported by the transportation means, household appliances, precision tools and mechanical sectors. Inflation in Italy has remained in line with the Euro Area.
