3 THE ECONOMIC OUTLOOK After growing for over 6 years (since 2001) the U.S. economy has slowed sharply (since Dec. 07) and is now in month 17 of the recession. A prolonged housing downturn, subprime mortgage problems, stressed financial industries and declining retail and auto sales trends are major factors driving the recession. The economy is steadily losing jobs and the unemployment rate has reached 8.5% this spring. Corporate profits are also shrinking causing investment spending to weaken. Inflation has declined sharply and has temporarily become a secondary monetary policy concern. The Bush Fiscal Stimulus Program ballooned the Federal deficit to $455 billion in FY The Obama administration s program might triple this in FY There are additional forecast risks. The Outlook for the construction industry is cloudy. Some of President Obama s initiatives will impact the construction industry. 3

20 THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY OUTLOOK If this recession plays out like previous ones, there still are significant declines ahead. In the early 1980s recession, nonresidential construction activity fell by almost 28 percent before growth resumed, a figure exceeded in the early 1990s recession (31 percent) and almost matched in the early 2000s downturn (25 percent). Kermit Baker, Chief Economist, AIA Consensus Construction Forecast. 1/16/09. Particularly hard hit will be the commercial and industrial categories. With many businesses seeing falling profits and difficulties in obtaining credit, expansion plans have been put on hold until the economic outlook improves. Institutional construction should fare better than its commercial/industrial counterpart as the healthcare and education sectors are expected to continue to expand through much of this downturn. Kermit Baker, Chief Economist, AIA Consensus Construction Forecast. 1/16/09. 20
21 THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY OUTLOOK Last quarter we described the outlook for construction as the good, the bad and the ugly. Now that 2008 is past, the outlook is just plain ugly. Nonresidential construction will plummet and begin at least three years of contraction. The bottom in terms of both dollar volume and percent decline will not be until Residential construction is not expected to recover until FMI s Construction Outlook: First Quarter 2009 Report. 3/10/ is going to be a tough year for the North American construction industry. While no one has perfect knowledge about the future and there are certainly serious economic issues yet to be faced, some indicators hint that our survey may have been taken at or near an economic low point. It s possible that a slow recovery is underway or is about to begin. Let s hope so. A government stimulus package that includes an infrastructure revitalization component could go a long way to helping this industry. Ron Riecks, General Manager, Wells Fargo Construction. 1/15/09 21
