Hello loyal News N Economics readers! I will be contributing to Angry Bear; and on those days that I do, I will not post here. However, I will link to the Angry Bear article...just like I am doing here.
Trends in home values: becoming murky

Which version of the FHFA HPI are you using? The graph on their website seems to show an uptick.
Hi James,
In the first chart (the bubble chart), I use the quarterly HPI, which is then divided by the CPI imputed rent series and indexed to 1995. The graph on the website (I presume that this, http://www.fhfa.gov/Default.aspx?Page=14, is to which you refer) shows annual growth, which did improve over last quarter.
Best, Rebecca
