In contrast to 1992, however, growth in output was driven exclusively by domestic demand, with all components recording stronger growth in 1993 than in the previous year. Consumption spending grew by 7¾ percent in 1993, up from 2¾ percent in 1992. Fuelled by higher real wages and the positive wealth effect of higher equity prices, real private consumption rose by 7½ percent in 1993, compared with 2½ percent in 1992
