TIGER'S EYE ON
NEW YEAR PROSPECTS
Stock market bulls and bears have been
warned to beware the Year of the Tiger.
Stockbrokers Phillips and Drew say the
ancient Chinese horoscope could mean
some "explosive prospects" on the
economic front in the New Year.
The Year of the Ox, noted for modest
progress, gives way to the Tiger, which
has previously heralded the General
Strike in 1926 and World War I in 1914.
The firm foresees an international debt
default, the erection of US trade
barriers and a possible collapse of the
dollar but also a new market vitalit8.
