We are still a long way from economic growth and increased employment, the pace of job cuts seems to be slowing and there are signs of life in the housing market that indicate a possible recovery is on it’s way…if not already happening.  California experienced a 59 percent peak-to-trough decline in price, hitting bottom in 2009 vs a 29 percent peak-to-trough decline experienced by the national market.  Some economist believe this steep decline indicates the state is further along in its return to a normal market than the national market…I just hope these guys are right for once!
