    What Today's Case-Shiller Home Price Index Doesn't Show You About the Housing Market

    Case Shiller

    By Jim Bach, Associate Editor, Money Morning • @JimBach22 - August 26, 2014

    The S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index, a widely followed benchmark for home prices, showed a slow growth in home prices amid an unimpressive housing recovery.

    But given the factors underlying this recovery, and the activity in the housing market, this should come as no surprise.

    Here's why this housing recovery just can’t seem to take off…

Case-Shiller Home Price Index: U.S. Housing Market Nearing Bottom in 2012

By Kerri Shannon, Associate Editor, Money Morning - January 31, 2012

The S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index showed another decline for November 2011, its third straight monthly loss, as the U.S. housing market trends toward a bottom this year.

Home prices in both the 10-city and 20-city measures of the Home Price Index fell 1.3% from October. Prices fell 3.6% and 3.7% from November 2010, respectively.

The Case-Shiller Home Price Index has fallen steadily since September. Prices in October fell 1.1% and 1.2% from the month before for the 10-city and 20-city indices.

Double-Dip in Home Prices Could Restrain Economic Recovery

By David Zeiler, Associate Editor, Money Morning • @DavidGZeiler - April 8, 2011

With the latest data pointing to a double-dip in home prices, it has become increasingly clear that the wobbly economic recovery won't be getting any help from the housing sector.

Existing home sales in February sank 9.6% from the previous month, while prices fell 5.2% to a median of $156,000, the lowest since April 2002. Existing homes comprise 90% of the housing market.
Meanwhile, new homes sales in February plummeted to an annual rate of 250,000, far below the norm of 700,000 and a level half that of 1963, when the United States had 120 million fewer residents than its current population of 310 million. The median sales price plunged 8.9% year-over-year.
