This document analyzes the impact of household debt and deleveraging on the US gaming industry. It finds that:
1) A significant amount of consumer spending between 2002-2007 was driven by debt and housing appreciation, fueling gaming revenue growth.
2) As households pay down debt from unprecedented levels, it is dampening discretionary consumer spending and therefore gaming industry revenues.
3) Regional gaming markets dependent on regions with high debt levels like Arizona, California and Florida have seen worse declines, while Texas's gaming markets have fared better with its lower household debt.
4) The analysis concludes that high household debt and deleveraging will continue to limit gaming industry spending growth through at

The document discusses two key topics:
1) The housing market recovery is expected to continue through 2014, with existing home sales, new home sales, and housing starts all increasing in the coming years. Home prices are also forecasted to rise steadily.
2) However, the looming "fiscal cliff" poses a major risk to the economic recovery. If Congress fails to address large automatic spending cuts and tax increases, it could trigger a recession. The housing market outlook is dependent on resolving this issue and avoiding further limitations on mortgage credit availability.

Marketing to Reach Your Members (Credit Union Conference Session Presentation...NAFCU Services Corporation
A recent survey suggests that mortgage professionals have a low rank in terms of credibility in the market place. When marketing to consumers, credit unions need to focus on the messages they deliver to establish a higher level of trust. Why should they do business with my credit union? Why should they do business with me? In this presentation, we will examine methods on how credit unions can set themselves apart and successfully market mortgage insurance to consumers.

This document provides a summary of the 2010 annual report on the state of the residential mortgage market in Canada. Some key findings from the report include:
1. Consumer attitudes about local housing market conditions have deteriorated slightly from previous years, though the average response was still slightly positive. Saskatchewan was the only province with a negative average response.
2. Expectations about home buying and house price increases have also weakened from previous years. Only 3.6% of consumers indicated they were highly likely to purchase a home in the next year.
3. The report provides analysis on various dimensions of the mortgage market including mortgage volumes, approvals by province, arrears rates, and forecasts for mortgage lending activity. It
This document discusses trends in the global economy and implications for private equity. It analyzes the unprecedented levels of debt in the US economy and ongoing deleveraging process across sectors. Deleveraging involves debt repayment and defaults, which reduces spending and availability of credit, lowering asset prices and economic activity. The housing market downturn and end of mortgage equity withdrawals have further depressed the US economy into its most severe recession since WWII. Globalization of credit issues has spread the crisis to Europe and emerging markets through channels like falling trade and commodity prices.
The housing market recovery slowed in July after the homebuyer tax credit expired, with home sales falling below year-ago levels for the first time in 14 months. However, home prices remained stable and mortgage rates set new record lows, maintaining historically high affordability. The job market and economy recovery remained concerns. New financial reform laws aimed to strengthen consumer protections for mortgages and credit reporting.

This document contains a proposed bill that would allow American citizens to modify their existing home mortgages to a 4% interest rate without changing lenders. This is intended to help stimulate the economy by decreasing unemployment, preventing foreclosures and bank-owned homes, stabilizing the housing market, increasing tax revenues, and helping household budgets. The bill is supported by findings that banks are lending little due to losses on home loans, the slow job and housing market recovery since 2007, the problem of "zombie foreclosures" lingering for years in process while damaging home values, and forecasts of a continued difficult year for the mortgage industry in 2014 due to new regulations.

This report provides a summary of global real estate market trends in the second quarter of 2013. The key points are:
1) Real home prices strengthened year-over-year in most countries surveyed, led by gains in the US and UK as monetary policy easing supports demand.
2) Canadian housing activity remains buoyant due to low interest rates, but fundamentals are becoming less favorable as job growth slows. Condo overbuilding is a concern in major cities like Toronto.
3) Several European markets like the UK are showing signs of recovery, while conditions remain weak in southern Europe with high unemployment in countries like Spain and Ireland.
4) Asian property markets are mixed, with strong growth continuing
- Home sales in 2014 are expected to hold steady at around 5.12 million units, similar to projected sales in 2013. Median home prices are forecast to rise nearly 6% in 2014 after an expected 11% increase in 2013.
- Inventory shortages continue to put upward pressure on home prices. Housing starts need to increase substantially to meet demand and alleviate the shortage.
- Mortgage rates are projected to rise through 2014, reaching over 5% by year-end, which will impact affordability. Job growth and potential easing of lending standards could offset higher rates.
- Inflation may start to rise in 2014 as the rent component increases, emphasizing the need for more new home construction to control price growth

Presentation given at the San Diego County Water Authority's Board of Directors' Meeting on Jan. 24, 2013. To view agenda visit www.sdcwa.org/meetings-and-documents
Housing activity remains above year-ago levels despite the expiration of tax credits. Home prices have stabilized with similar levels of distressed home sales as last year, though the economy still has further recovery ahead. Consumers are saving more and spending cautiously. While this reduces near-term spending, it positions households financially for the future. The Federal Reserve continues measures to support the economy through low interest rates and may reinvest maturing mortgage bonds to stimulate growth.
The document discusses two topics:
1. Housing affordability has returned to pre-bubble levels in many US markets according to a Moody's analysis, as the ratio of home prices to household income has fallen to its lowest level in 35 years.
2. The US Treasury Department released a report on reforming the US mortgage market that outlines three options but will take years to implement, shaping the future of mortgage liquidity and affordability.
3. The author notes their company's business model ensures they can continue serving clients through any housing reforms.

Raising the U.S. Debt Ceiling and Fiscal Budget Deficit Debate – Summary Thou...NAFCU Services Corporation
The document discusses the debate in Congress around raising the US debt ceiling. It notes the current debt limit is $14.294 trillion and was last raised in 2010. There are differing views on how best to reduce the fiscal deficit, through tax increases, spending cuts, or a mix. Failure to raise the debt ceiling by early August could force the Treasury to prioritize payments but would not necessarily cause default. The fund discussed is positioned defensively with shorter-term Treasuries and monitors the situation closely.
This document discusses several projections and analyses related to the US housing market in 2012:
1) Several analysts predict the housing market will improve in 2012 compared to 2011, with a stronger second half, citing higher than expected economic data and indicators of increased consumer sentiment.
2) Warren Buffett states that buying single family homes is an attractive investment due to low interest rates and the ability to refinance, and that buying one's own home is a good option if staying in the same place for 5-10 years.
3) The national mortgage settlement will allow banks to proceed with millions of delayed foreclosures, pushing home prices down another 3% but helping the market in the long run by reducing the

The document discusses India's current economic situation and opportunities for growth. It notes that while GDP and industrial output growth slowed in December, stock markets remained bullish and FIIs continued investing heavily in India. It argues the government should seize the opportunity to implement delayed reforms to spur growth, such as increasing petroleum prices and pushing through the 2G auction. Reducing the fiscal deficit through these measures could boost growth and attract more foreign investment. The RBI may also cut interest rates to support the economy if the government demonstrates a credible commitment to fiscal discipline.
BIG INVESTORS - Moving To U.S. Treasury BondsVogelDenise
The interest rate on 10-year U.S. Treasury notes dropped to 1.62%, the lowest level since 1945, as investors fled stocks and sought safe havens due to fears about the European debt crisis. Low yields on U.S. government bonds reflect strong demand for safe assets rather than expectations of good returns. Despite high and rising U.S. debt levels, investors still consider Treasuries a safe investment due to the large size and stability of the U.S. economy and tax base.

Social media and e-politics: Reaching and engaging citizensMunir Mandviwalla
This document discusses how social media and the internet are changing political campaigning and citizen engagement. It notes that over 55% of US adults got news and participated in political discussions online in 2008. A 20-year-old won a county seat by defeating an incumbent using Facebook. Blog mentions of candidates were significantly associated with poll results, unlike traditional media. Social media allows low-cost, easy, and interactive political engagement that is replacing traditional campaigning methods. It raises questions about how social media will impact the roles of traditional media and dynamics between citizens and officials.
Zero to No. 1: Six steps to building a world class departmentMunir Mandviwalla
This document outlines 16 steps to building a world class department of management information systems (MIS) over 14 years from 2000 to 2014. It summarizes the key initiatives and achievements in 3 steps:
1) Establishing strategic alliances both internally at the university and externally with industry partners, and fostering a culture of strategic impatience.
2) Developing an epic storytelling narrative to communicate the department's identity and evangelize its mission to students, faculty, and staff.
3) Validating the department's curriculum and resources through partnerships with industry, and positioning the department at the forefront of emerging fields like analytics, innovation, and digital transformation.
This document discusses the role of business schools in STEM education. It notes that STEM jobs are expected to grow significantly by 2018, especially in computing fields. However, many students lose interest in STEM fields before graduating high school. The document also outlines the US government's strategic plan to improve STEM instruction, engagement, and degree attainment. It argues that business schools can benefit from participating in STEM through new degree programs, partnerships, and visibility. Examples provided include the Professional Science Masters, which combines STEM and business training. Key questions are raised about how business schools can better engage with the national STEM agenda.
The document provides an outlook on the 2008 markets from GFAM. It discusses how investor anxiety that began in late 2007 accelerated in early 2008. The document predicts that a recession in the US is likely for 2008, driven by the housing bubble bursting and its impact on consumer debt. It notes rising delinquencies in consumer debt, commercial real estate loans, and other business loans. The effects of the credit crunch could include $250B in credit and mortgage losses, reduced bank lending of $1.25T, and a $300B cut to consumer spending over the next few years. Offsets to declining consumer spending are unlikely due to weak job and business investment outlooks. The global economic outlook is slowing growth in developed nations
1) The document discusses the ongoing process of deleveraging (reducing debt levels) in developed countries since the 2008 financial crisis. It focuses on the experiences of the US, UK, and Spain.
2) US households have reduced their debt levels the most so far (4% decrease), possibly being halfway through the deleveraging process. UK and Spanish households have deleveraged much less (under 1% decrease).
3) Historical examples suggest countries can take 5-7 years to complete deleveraging. Private sector debt reduction typically precedes public sector deleveraging, which usually only occurs after GDP growth rebounds.
The document discusses how the US economic growth of the last decade was fueled by consumer spending and easy credit access, but these conditions have now changed in ways that make a return to "normal" unlikely. It argues that earnings growth, asset prices, and GDP in the future cannot rely on the same factors as the past 20 years, namely generous consumer credit, home equity withdrawals, and widespread lending. Going forward, consumer deleveraging, tighter credit conditions, and reduced demand will hamper earnings and the economy unless new drivers of growth can be found to replace the credit-fueled spending that drove past prosperity.
The document discusses how the US economic growth of the last decade was fueled by consumer spending and easy credit access, but these conditions have now changed in ways that make a return to "normal" unlikely. It argues that earnings and GDP growth depended on factors like monetary policy, asset inflation, and consumer leverage that are no longer applicable. It questions where future earnings, buying power, and credit will come from to support previous levels of economic activity and asset prices.
This document is the annual report letter to shareholders from Marshall & Ilsley Corporation regarding their 2008 financial results. It summarizes that 2008 was a disappointing year due to losses from housing market collapse and overexposure to construction loans. It outlines steps taken to reduce risks, such as selling loans, job cuts, and dividend reductions. It expresses hope that government economic stimulus plans will help stabilize the economy and banking industry.

The document summarizes the key factors that led to the 2008 financial crisis and outlines steps taken by the US government to address it. Specifically, it discusses how stagnant real wage growth, rising consumer debt, the housing bubble bursting, overuse of complex financial instruments like credit default swaps, and lack of oversight combined to undermine the economy. The government responded with a $700 billion bailout package aimed at stabilizing banks, boosting liquidity, and removing toxic assets from balance sheets.

This report focuses on consumer insight issues, including consumer outlook, mortgagor satisfaction and lender brand image. Later in the year, a market report will focus on market shares, product analysis and forecasts.Scope*Provides data on consumer outlook and mortgage intentions.*Draws upon a large Datamonitor consumer survey to gain insights into the current mindset of the Australian mortgagor.*Provides an overview of changes in mortgage satisfaction and brand image.*Analyzes different segments of mortgage demand.HighlightsThe future direction of Australian property prices is currently hotly contested, with some economists predicting a crash and others forecasting steadily rising prices over the next year, with a major reason for these divergent opinions being the presence of two strong opposing forces of affordability and undersupply. There are several product innovations that promise to help mortgage affordability in the face of rising property prices. These include shared equity mortgages (SEMs), mortgages with longer loan terms, and shared mortgages.Most economic observers and industry participants have relatively low forecasts of first time buyer and investor activity over the next 12 months.

It discusses Genworth's solid Q1 2013 financial results, including premiums written, loss ratios, and profitability metrics. It also outlines Genworth's risk management framework and focus on macroeconomic factors, underwriting discipline, and portfolio risk management. Additionally, it presents expectations for ongoing stability and a soft landing in the Canadian housing market supported by moderating unemployment.
The document discusses the state of the US economy and debt financing markets for middle market companies. It notes that while the economic recovery remains fragile, modest growth in areas like manufacturing, personal income and expenditures, coupled with continued federal stimulus, should allow the economy to continue growing without a second recession. However, unemployment will remain high as productivity gains allow more output with fewer workers. Debt markets have also seen renewed activity, with increased volumes in both the leveraged loan and high yield bond markets.
BoyarMiller Breakfast Forum: The Current State of the Capital Markets 2009BoyarMiller
This document summarizes a presentation on the current state of real estate finance markets. It notes that a massive amount of commercial mortgage debt will mature between 2009-2013 that cannot be refinanced given current market conditions, creating an unprecedented refinancing shortfall of at least $1.2 trillion. This will force significant deleveraging of U.S. real estate assets as properties struggle to refinance with lower loan-to-value ratios. Loan modifications and restructuring will likely need to be pursued more frequently to manage losses as foreclosures and defaults rise sharply during this period of debt maturities and constrained capital availability.
Real Estate Capital Markets Are Alive, If Not Quite WellDan Hutchins
The document summarizes the state of the commercial real estate market based on an analysis by Dr. Peter Linneman. It notes that $240 billion of distressed commercial real estate loans have occurred since the recession, with varying resolutions for different portions of that total. Real estate sales activity has increased in 2020 compared to 2009 across major sectors, but average unit prices dropped in some sectors. REIT implied capitalization rates have fallen significantly since late 2009. The recovery of real estate prices reflects an assumption of strong job growth over the next 3-4 years, but real estate performance will depend on accuracy of views about economic recovery and inflation.
After the global financial crisis, the global banking industry will undergo significant changes due to new regulations. Growth and profitability for banks will likely decline as equity ratios increase. Lean years are ahead for US banks as revenue growth may remain low due to reduced lending. Private equity experienced booms and busts with the economic cycle, riding high during expansions but seeing deal volumes drop sharply during recessions. The industry is starting to see signs of recovery in 2010 in both developed and emerging markets like India.
- The US added 227,000 new jobs in February and 1.2 million jobs over the past six months, the highest six-month total since 2006. However, unemployment remains elevated and long-term unemployment is near record levels.
- Since the stock market low on March 9, 2009, the S&P 500 has risen over 100% while corporate revenues have barely increased due to widespread cost cutting, including large job cuts. Continued job growth may lead companies to add more staff and support revenue growth.
- US household net worth reached $58.5 trillion at the end of 2011, still $8.3 trillion below its 2007 peak, as the real estate and stock markets impact wealth. Households are
Regions Bank had disappointing financial results in 2008 that reflected the turbulent operating environment caused by the housing crisis and recession. The Chairman acknowledges the impact on shareholders but notes that Regions remained well capitalized and avoided risky investments that hurt other banks. While credit quality deteriorated, Regions took aggressive actions to reduce troubled assets and non-performing loans. Going forward, the bank will focus on strengthening its capital position, serving customers prudently, and building long-term shareholder value through improved customer relationships and service.

Bob Grant provides a summary of comments made by Jeffrey DeBoer to Congress about the struggling state of the commercial real estate industry. Key points include: refinancing capacity presents an ongoing risk to property values as $300-500B in commercial real estate loans will mature annually through 2020; capitalization rates have increased 250 basis points while rents have declined 20% depending on property type; the lack of transactions makes it hard to accurately value properties; and regulatory flexibility is needed to restructure loans and allow banks to extend performing loans based on cash flow to avoid foreclosures. Michigan in particular continues to struggle more than other states with industrial vacancies over 13% and expected retail vacancy increases of 2% and rent declines of 4%

Apertor las vegas locals casino market 1aGregg Carlson
The document summarizes the outlook for the Las Vegas locals casino market, noting that:
1) Recent data and evidence suggests that optimism for a near-term recovery in the locals market is premature, as the market highly depends on the local economy which faces challenges from high unemployment, a weak housing market, and lack of job and population growth.
2) Core industry metrics like daily slot volume and win per slot have plummeted since late 2008 as the recession hit the local gaming and overall economy hard.
3) A recovery in the locals market will likely be slow and protracted given current negative trends and lack of visibility of improvements in the local economic factors that drive the market.

Gregg Carlson report sample Las Vegas Strip Ecosystem without picsGregg Carlson
The Las Vegas Strip hotel market is facing significant changes with new hotel projects opening over the next few years, increasing supply by 11%. This will likely lead to shifts in the market shares held by different hotels. Top-tier hotels like Wynn may capture more business from mid-tier hotels, creating a "waterfall effect" down the chain. Lower-tier hotels risk negative returns and cash flows as their market share declines. The geography of development also matters - the north Strip faces stalled projects and weaker performance. The future remains unclear without stronger visitor growth to match the new supply.

The document provides an analysis of Costco Wholesale's recent performance and outlook. It summarizes that Costco reported strong same-store sales growth of 7-8% during the first four months of 2008 despite challenging economic conditions.
