UNITED States Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said it was too soon to decide whether the US economy would need the help of a second round of government stimulus to recover from recession.
"I don't think that's a judgment we need to make now, can't really make it now prudently, responsibly," Geithner said in a CNN interview that was aired yesterday.
According to the CNN transcript, Geithner said the "biggest thrust" of the US$787-billion package of spending and tax cuts signed into law earlier this year would take effect in the second half of this year. He also said a program that is setting up public-private partnerships to buy up toxic assets held by banks would likely see less use than had been expected a few months ago.
