Figure 1, The Government Consumption Wedge 
          is the sum of real government consumption plus
          real exports less real imports, all divided by 
          the population between ages 15 and 64, normalized
          by first dividing by real GDP in 1994:4 and then 
          multiplying by 100.  Note that the quarterly data 
          has been seasonally adjusted.

          Mexican Net Exports 
          is the real exports less real imports, divided by
          the population between ages 15 and 64, normalized
          by first dividing by real GDP in 1994:4 and then 
          multiplying by 100.  Note that the quarterly data 
          has been seasonally adjusted.


Figure 2, Mexican Real GDP
          is real GDP divided by the population between ages
          15 and 64, normalized so that the value in 1994:4 
          is 100.

          Model Output From a Sudden Stop
          is the predicted output response assuming the only shock
          in the prototype growth model is the shock to government
          consumption, with realizations of the shock from Mexican data.
