- US Regional Webcast - July 17, 2012
US Regional Webcast - July 17, 2012
IHS is hosting the US Regional Webcast: Slow but Steady Growth in 2012-13—A Region-by-Region Outlook on July 17, 2012.
IHS experts from our US Regional Economics team will examine our near-term forecast for the Northeast, South, Midwest, and West. We will analyze the varied experiences of each region during the recession as well as the recovery. Additionally, we will highlight the importance of the industrial structure, regional demographics, and household exposure to the real estate crash.
Key questions we will explore:
- Are housing markets ready to rebound?
- Which sectors will lead the recovery?
- When will regions return to pre-recession employment levels?
- What are the main forecast risks and how will adverse scenarios affect the regions?
Please join us on 17 July, as we discuss these and other important issues related to the US recovery.
Can't make this date? We offer playbacks of all our Webcasts. For a replay of this Webcast, register for the "live" event, and you will receive instructions to access the playback in the confirmation e-mail.
