U.S. home prices rose in September for the sixth straight month, showing that the housing market is recovering according to the S&P/Case-Shiller home-price index. The 20-city composite posted a 0.3% increase in September to reach the highest level in two years, following a 0.8% gain in August. Home prices are up 3% from September 2011. |
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development warns of a “hesitant and uneven recovery over the coming two years,” saying it expects global growth of 1.4% this year and next. “The world economy is far from being out of the woods,” said OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría, in a press release as the group released its Economic Outlook. “The U.S. ‘fiscal cliff,’ if it materializes, could tip an already weak economy into recession, while failure to solve the euro-area crisis could lead to a major financial shock and global downturn.” Gross domestic product across the OECD could rise to 2.3% for 2014, according to the projections. |
