If the economic recovery falters, there are no easy options left to bolster it.
That is the grim reality facing the U.S. Federal Reserve and the Group of 20 world leaders as both meet this week to plot their policy course.
For the Fed christian louboutin luly mary jane pumps jimmy choo outlet * Unions proposing mines return to state control, whose next interest rate decision comes Wednesday christian louboutin luly mary jane pumps , keeping short-term rates near zero is a foregone conclusion. The tough part is how to express its views on the economy without giving false signals on when it might move.

Now it is signaling a marked slowdown.
