Indications from the first half of the year suggested that the present cyclical expansion was starting to slow in much of the OECD. The pace of activity moderated particularly sharply in North America. Canadian GDP fell slightly in the second quarter of the year and inventory levels rose considerably. Trade growth was also lower than expected, although this partially reflected the regional impact of recent developments in Mexico. Within Europe, GDP growth slowed in the UK, France and Italy, although growth proved unexpectedly robust in a number of the smaller economies, particularly Ireland, Sweden and Finland. Output also continued to grow sharply in Australia and South East Asia.

The method of determination of turning points of economic development and evaluation of economic dynamics. The turning points of economic development proposed to diagnose on anomalous dispersion rates of economic growth. Type the economic dynamics of the country invited to be determined by comparing the average rate of economic growth and the growth of the world economy. The risk of instability of economic dynamics are encouraged to estimate indicator, reflecting the relative variation in the pace of economic growth in comparison with the variation of the growth rate of the world economy. To determine the prospects for economic development in South-East Asia investigated the economic dynamics of Burma (Myanmar), Brunei, Vietnam, Cambodia (Kampuchea), Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines. It is established that the countries of Southeast Asia except Brunei is developing at an accelerated pace. Rates of growth of economy of these countries exceed the growth rate of the world economy. South-East Asia countries except Brunei are developing steadily. Stability and development of Vietnam and Laos exceed the level of stability of development of the world economy. Therefore, in South-East Asia should be considered to be preferable business and trade partners of Vietnam and Laos.
