CURRENT SITUATION
“The Future Just Isn’t What It Used to
Be!”
Yogi Berra
National & Global Issues
• Price of single most important commodity – oil – fell by half in span
of a few months
• Europe is in recession and reserve interest rate for ECB is negative:
EU disinflation real possibility
• Russia is experiencing full-blown currency crisis & recession with
high inflation (Central Bank of Russian Federation at 17% rate)
• Mid-east instability: geo-political unrest growing and critical
• Emerging markets in meltdown mode: China and India growth ~ half
or less of past several years, Russia & Brazil in recession
• Bull market in stocks very advanced: margin borrowing
• Fed is basically out of ammunition; rates rise mid-2015 +/- ??
• Money flowing into US for protection keeping rates down
• Volatility in credit and hedging exceedingly high and volatile
• Possible sovereign debt default now back on radar
3
Oil Prices & Energy
• Prices may not have bottomed yet:
– Saudi Arabia continues to protect its market share, and
therefore cuts prices in order to maintain sales volume.
– Global oil production increases before it decreases.
– Global oil demand does not rapidly increase even with
rapidly-falling prices.
• In the second week of December the Baker Hughes rotary
rig count for the U.S. had the biggest one-week slide since
March 2013, falling by 27 rigs to 1,893. Still a strong
number, but clearly off the September peak.
• Expect significant cut back in upstream capital spending
on E&P, i.e., fewer wells drilled
• Increased geo-political-military volatility among oil
producing nations that need (require) $95-$100+ oil price
4
US Issues
• Expected GDP growth still modest: 2015
2.8%; personal consumption 2.5%
• Inflation not worrisome: 2015 1.5% - 2.0%,
especially with lower gas prices
• Industrial production data generally
positive
• Housing improving, adding to overall
national economy; residential
construction stable at 1–1.2 million units
• Jobs expanding; unemployment rate
probably down under 5.5% level or better
5
Texas Issues
• Price of oil fell ~half since July
• National economy, High Tech & Healthcare
sectors still fairly strong: major influences
• Energy-dependent local economies (e.g.
Houston, Corpus) more vulnerable to
significant downturns
• Statewide or local Slowdown vs. Decline?
• State budget expectations from Severance Tax
affected by oil price decline
• Downstream offsets to Upstream cutbacks?



Sustained below average GDP growth
Continued relatively low inflation
Slow job recovery: more people are working
& jobs created, but still ~1 million < peak
Interest rates low – FED actions key with
small changes
Cautious optimism: households & businesses
Greater credit capacity again, but lenders
slow to lend
Regulatory uncertainty & political risk
continue to fuel private sector indecision

Gen Y Housing
•
•
•
•
Seen the housing collapse
Currently 51% rent
80+% eventually want to buy
First-time buyers mostly with
financial constraints to buying
• Jobs and student debt = less
savings for down payment
• First-time buyers <30% vs.
historic 40%

Why Are They Called Gen-Y?
• People born before 1946 were called The Silent
or Greatest generation.
• People born between 1946 and 1964 are called
The Baby Boomers.
• People born between 1965 and 1979 are called
Generation X.
• And people born between 1980 and 2010 are
called Generation Y.
Why do we call the last group Generation Y?
Why Are They Called Gen-Y?
Some possible reasons:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Y should I get a job?
Y should I leave home and find my own place?
Y should I get a car when I can borrow yours?
Y should I clean my room?
Y should I wash and iron my own clothes?
Y should I buy any food?
But one cartoonist explained it very eloquently...
Why Are They Called Gen-Y?
Top Housing Issues
• Affordability and sustainable price increases
• Mortgage interest rates
• Construction & labor costs
• Lot inventory for new construction
• Mortgage market changes: QRM; FNMA loan
limits; variable qualifying; closing costs;
• Higher “other” costs: taxes, insurance
• Stronger rental market
• Return to fundamentals: employment/income,
household formations, affordability

Why Aren’t New Home Sales
Increasing Faster?
• First-time/move up buyer employment and
financing difficulties
• Home builders maxed out in many cases
• Employment & income stability and outlook
• Rent vs. Buy: flexibility; negative stigma; no choice
• Profit margins to builders better on higher-priced
homes
• Bulk institutional investor buyers have run course
• Local regulatory controls and fees increasing cost
of new home development
