Glass Half Full but with Significant Socioeconomic Challenges In the last few months several indicators suggest stabilization or continued (albeit slow) growth in addition to payroll employment, first time unemployment claims, bankruptcy filings. Other indicators: Residential foreclosures far down from their 2010 peak Existing residential home sales holding steady and prices trending higher, and residential bldg permits up. Monthly taxable sales trend is positive; gaining 72% of loss during recession. Tourism sector began recovery in early 2009 and continues to grow. International trade growing as well.

What lies immediately ahead? World economic growth is decelerating: U.S., Euro zone, Asia, Japan, and Latin America (varying causes) Economic policy uncertainty in U.S. has hurt the momentum of the recovery. Major stimulus unlikely. Some hopeful signs that enough actions will be taken to avert a return to economic recession. (Euro debt crisis; some parts of President s proposal adopted.) But not enough to accelerate the recovery and employment growth before 2013. Local economy in good position to participate in accelerated recovery should national and int l economic policy impediments be resolved. Office of Economic Development and International Trade 12
