US home prices continued to grow in August, but the pace of growth slowed considerably as rising mortgage rates pushed more prospective buyers out of the market

Home prices rose 13% in August from the year before, a smaller jump than the 15.6% growth seen in July and 18.1% pace in June, according to the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller US National Home Price Index. The drop between July and August was the largest deceleration in the history of the index, surpassing the previous record a month prior.

“These data show clearly that the growth rate of housing prices peaked in the spring of 2022 and has been declining ever since,” said Craig J. Lazzara, managing director at S&P Dow Jones Indices. All 20 cities tracked by the index reported smaller price increases in August compared to the prior year. Miami notched the biggest gains, with home prices rising 28.6% in August from the year before. It was followed by Tampa, which was up 28%, and Charlotte, with a 21.3% increase.

Bidenflation and everything is higher, gas, food etc

America should not focus only on its own interests. Balance is an important factor in the global economy. Amen

Japan's exports have been sluggish due to the tightening monetary policy of the United States, and inevitably they are counting on inbound from overseas. I don't think this is a good idea given the protracted Ukrainian conflict.

Inflation = recession.

Among other things.
