10th Annual Royal Banks Economic Outlook The St. Louis Economic Outlook for 2011 December 9, 2010 William R. Emmons Assistant Vice President and Economist Division of Banking Supervision and Regulation Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis William.R.Emmons@stls.frb.org 33 20m
The St. Louis Economic Outlook For 2011 • The national economy • The view from the Fed • Risks to the national outlook • The St. Louis economy • The bad news: Jobs • The (relatively) good news: Housing and banking conditions 34
Important Reminder • These comments do not necessarily reflect the views of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis or of the Federal Reserve System. 35
What I Said Last Year (Dec. 10, 2009).... • Dec. 2010 Update • Employment: 1,300 jobs added in St. Louis metro area during 12 months through Oct. 2010 (+0.1% increase). • At this pace, regaining the Feb. 2008 peak will take 57 years. • Pace has slowed since Spring. • Housing: St. Louis and US house prices are (still) falling. • Mortgage distress remains severe. • Building permits flat from year ago; still down more than 70% from peak in 2005. • CRE: St. Louis metro office and industrial vacancy rates have increased from year ago. • Majority of STL banks have higher CRE past-due rates now than a year ago. • The St. Louis economy is likely to recover slowly during 2010. • St. Louis labor market will remain soft. • Housing and mortgage weakness likely to linger beyond 2010. • Commercial real-estate markets will suffer from the weak recovery. 36
The View From the Fed • Slow recovery underway • Little change in unemployment likely during 2011 • Low inflation • Uncertainty and caution are holding back the recovery 37
Ben Bernanke: The Current Economic Trajectory Is “Unacceptable“ Percent Highest projection by an FOMC member FOMC unemployment projection Acceptable unemployment range But why would core inflation rise if unemployment remains elevated? Acceptable inflation range Vertical shading represents NBER recession periods FOMC core-inflation projection Lowest projection by an FOMC member 38 Source: Federal Reserve Board Projections for fourth quarter of 2010-13, as of Nov. 2010
The Fed‘s Current Monetary-Policy Strategy* • Boost asset prices • Maintain stable inflation expectations • Increase confidence in the recovery • *These are the views of the presenter, not necessarily those of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis or the Federal Reserve System. 39
Risks to the Outlook • Failure to achieve “take-off velocity” • Unemployment flat or higher • Lower inflation • Renewed turbulence—Overseas… in Congress… financial markets • Renewed weakness in real-estate markets in the context of household balance-sheet deleveraging 40
The St. Louis Economy • The bad news: Jobs • No evidence of sustained hiring • Labor force has been shrinking—discouraged workers? • The (relatively) good news: Housing and banking conditions • We didn’t have a crazy housing boom • House prices falling relatively slowly here • Mortgage distress is bad, not horrible • Banks generally in decent condition 41
