| UPDATE: IMF: Cheap Credit Encouraging Risky Investment
WASHINGTON -(Dow Jones)- Threats to economic stability have eased over the past six months, though low interest rates and a long period of unusually low volatility continue to encourage potentially excessive risk-taking by some investors, the International Monetary Fund said Tuesday. The global economy continues to expand at a solid pace, supported by a pickup in demand in the euro area and in emerging markets led by India and China, the IMF said in its latest Financial Stability Report. Downside risks from an abrupt unwinding of global trade imbalances have subsided, but new vulnerabilities have emerged, the IMF said. "The rapid growth of some innovative instruments, the rise in leverage in parts of the financial system, and the growth of carry trades suggest that market participants are expecting a continuation of the low volatility environment," the IMF said.

AFTER a good month in February, when the Investment Club's unit price bounced back to 243p from a low in January of 237p, a correction was inevitable.
