The Economic Impact of Development in San Antonio: 2010 Responsible Growth Alliance Presented by TXP | October 24, 2011
Economic Overview Tale of two economies: Global growth slows, as hot spots increase Corporate profits are record levels – overseas expansion, reduced costs (inputs, hiring), slow domestic investment = $1.9 trillion in cash Unemployment remains stubbornly high – no real sign that anything will change in the near term – weak consumer spending, no hiring, no wage growth Public sector also feeling severe heat – no economic growth, no tax increases = sharp cuts Conventional wisdom is that debt has to yield inflation over time – not for the foreseeable future, but logically down the road. Energy costs are pushing up current figures Debt deal kicks the can down the road. S&P downgrade impact mostly psychological in the near term – could raise borrowing costs over time U.S. appears to remain the “one-eyed man in the kingdom of the blind.” Wake-up call for the equity markets. Bottom line: sideways through the 2012 elections. Macro Situation

Macro Conclusions • GDP will continue be positive next year, but real “recovery” won’t happen until the following are resolved. • Solid job creation will follow demand growth that isn’t policy/debt driven – can’t happen without credit resolution • Current uptick in prices (energy and food showing signs of accelerating), but interest rates/monetary policy unlikely to change significantly until recovery is firmly in place. • Global economic trends and foreign conflicts will shape outlook – surprises likely to be negative • Longer-Term Outlook (Next Five Years) • Best Case – back to traditional model: global recovery leads to export-driven growth (lower dollar and new tech/products) that allows job creation and creates overseas markets for investment. Value of dollar is a plus. • Worst Case – some version of stagflation: debt yields inflation, causing interest rates to rise sharply and growth to be stifled.
San Antonio Economy Overview • Signs of life in the private sector. • 1,600 net new jobs in the manufacturing sector for the 12 months from Aug-10 through Aug-11; 10,200 more in education & healthcare and 4,100 in leisure & hospitality • Tourism remains a positive element - 2011 likely to be a record year for hotel revenue, as growing supply and occupancy offset static rates. • Consumer spending shows signs of improvement, but concerns about prices and income remain a constraint. • Multi-family looks to be first sector coming out of real estate recession. Overcapacity has been addressed on development side, but values have yet to recover, especially for commercial space • Population growth stronger than expected • Bodes well for housing markets and overall regional economies
