But the entire economic outlook for a
South Carolina isn't rosy. o
"Textile employment is expected to i]
decline more than two percent annually,"
said Susan Lauiy, a research economist v
in the Division of Research in USC's fi
College of Business Administration, o
However, Lauiy said, South Carolina's g
economy will not slip into a recession p
over the next two years. y
Real personal income in South n
Carolina will grow at about a 2.2 percent ta
annual rate over the next two years,
while employment will grow between di
two and 2.5 percent in 1996 and 1997, a
Laury said. di
The unemployment rate, reported R
as 4.7 percent in the second quarter of fc
1995 ? its lowest rate since 1990 ? Ii
may drop even further over the next two
years. w
And the outlook looks good for retail in
and business sectors, including real
estate. ec
