Home prices fell in December in most US cities Survey: Prices fell in 18 of 20 US cities in final months of 2011, prices back to 2002 level
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Home prices fell in December for a fourth straight month in most major U.S. cities, as modest sales gains in the depressed housing market have yet to lift prices.
The Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller home-price index shows prices dropped in December from November in 18 of the 20 cities tracked. The steepest declines were in Atlanta, Chicago and Detroit. Miami and Phoenix were the only cities to show an increase.
The declines partly reflect the typical slowdown that comes in the fall and winter.
Still, prices fell in 19 of the 20 cities in December compared to the same month in 2010. Only Detroit posted a year-over-year increase. Prices in Atlanta, Las Vegas, Seattle and Tampa dropped to their lowest points since the housing crisis began.
Nationwide, prices have fallen 34 percent nationwide since the housing bust, back to 2002 levels. A gauge of quarterly national prices, which covers 70 percent of U.S. homes, fell to its lowest point on records dating back to 1987 after being adjusted for inflation.http://finance.yahoo.com/news/home-prices-fell-december-most-140231740.html

Durable Goods Demand Falls Most in 3 Years; Down 4%
New orders for U.S. manufactured goods fell in January by the most in three years as demand fell across the board from machinery to aircraft, suggesting the economy started the year on weaker footing than expected.
Durable goods orders dropped 4.0 percent, the biggest drop since January 2009 when the country was still mired in a deep recession, according to Commerce Department data on Tuesday.
Economists had forecast orders falling 1.0 percent.
Durable goods range from toasters to big-ticket items like aircraft which are meant to last three years and more.
Excluding transportation, orders fell 3.2 percent. Economists had expected that reading to be flat. Machinery orders dropped 10.4 percent, the largest decline since January 2009.
Non-defense capital goods orders excluding aircraft, a closely watched proxy for future business investment, fell 4.5 percent, the steepest drop in a year.
A 6.1 percent drop in bookings for transportation equipment — including a 19 percent fall in civilian aircraft orders — dragged on the overall reading for durable goods.
Boeing received 150 orders for aircraft during the month, according to the plane maker's website, down from 287 in December.
Orders for motor vehicles edged up 0.9 percent.
Shipments of non-defense capital goods orders excluding aircraft, which go into the calculation of gross domestic product, fell 3.1 percent in January, the biggest decline since April 2009.

I have to say Cicero... I am very proud of you. When I first posted here with you, your posts were of the poorest quality imaginable, devoid of facts or any useful knowledge.
I feel a tear of pride in my eye just knowing that I've managed to spark a bit of improvement to your political discourse.
From my heart, Cicero... Your Welcome!

Dow Closes Above 13,000; First Time Since The Bush Economic Meltdown of 2008
The Dow is up nearly 3 percent for the month. Analysts said that the gains reflected the culmination of a generally upward trend in stocks since the beginning of the year.

Your a smart one like the rest of the lemming replaces watching the DOW. You know the index like all other indexes remove the losers and put in winners.
The DOW is going up because the "to big to fail" are getting even more "bigger to fail". Keep drinking the cool aid.
