Outro resultado, desta vez bom!
Primeira vez no ano
Inflação nos EUA recua inesperadamente em Agosto
Os preços pagos pelos consumidores norte-americanos caíram, inesperadamente, em Agosto, pela primeira vez este ano, em resultado da descida dos preços dos combustíveis e com a manutenção dos custos com as habitações.

Mais um resultado pouco animador

U.S. August Housing Starts Fall to 1.331 Million, 12-Year Lo
By Shobhana Chandra
Sept. 19 (Bloomberg) -- Builders in the U.S. began work on the fewest homes in 12 years in August, raising the risk the real- estate depression will spread to other parts of the economy.
The 2.6 percent decrease to a lower-than-forecast annual rate of 1.331 million followed July's 1.367 million, the Commerce Department said today in Washington. Building permits dropped 5.9 percent to a 1.307 million pace, also the lowest since 1995.
The housing slump may deepen after borrowing costs rose and lenders shut off access to credit, causing growth to slow even more, economists said. Federal Reserve policy makers yesterday lowered the benchmark rate by a half point to prevent a broader economic slowdown.
``The housing market deteriorated significantly in August,'' Brian Bethune, an economist at Global Insight Inc. in Lexington, Massachusetts, said before the report. ``Housing activity will continue to be a significant drag on overall growth through 2008.''
Starts were projected to fall to a 1.35 million unit pace, from an originally reported 1.381 million in July, according to the median forecast of 77 economists polled by Bloomberg News. Estimates ranged from 1.24 million to 1.4 million. Residential construction was down 19 percent over the last 12 months.
Permits, a sign of future construction, were forecast to drop to 1.348 million, according to the survey median, with projections ranging from 1.22 million to 1.39 million. July permits were revised up to a 1.389 million pace from a previously reported 1.373 million.
Construction of single-family homes plunged 7.1 percent to a 988,000 rate, the fewest since March 1993, today's report showed. Work on multifamily homes, such as townhouses and apartment buildings, jumped 13 percent to an annual rate of 343,000.
Northeast Plunges
The decrease in starts was led by a 38 percent plunge in the Northeast that was biggest since 1990 and an 18 percent decline in the West. Construction increased 11 percent in the South and 4.2 percent in the Midwest.
The number of homes under construction fell 1.2 percent to a 1.132 million pace. Housing completions decreased 0.2 percent to an annual rate of 1.523 million.
The number of properties authorized, but not yet started, fell 0.9 percent to 195,300.
Falling real-estate prices and subprime mortgage defaults will probably prolong the homebuilding recession, already the worst in 16 years. As loans become harder to get, rising foreclosures will throw more properties back on the market, economists said.
`Potential to Intensify'
``The tightening of credit conditions has the potential to intensify the housing correction and to restrain economic growth more generally,'' the Fed said in a statement yesterday. Policy makers lowered the benchmark interest rate to 4.75 percent, the first cut in four years.
The number of Americans who may lose their homes to foreclosure more than doubled in August from a year earlier as subprime borrowers with adjustable-rate mortgages saw their monthly payments rise, RealtyTrac Inc. reported yesterday.
Lenders sent notices of default or the equivalent to 108,716 homeowners in August, up from 42,144 in August 2006, Irvine, California-based research company said. It was the most since record keeping began in 2005.
Builders are turning more pessimistic as a result. The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo index of builder sentiment dropped to 20, matching the January 1991 reading as the weakest ever, the Washington-based association said yesterday.
Sweetening Incentives
Construction companies are sweetening incentives to get rid of inventory. Hovnanian Enterprises Inc. held a three-day blitz Sept. 14 to Sept. 16, with discounts worth as much as $100,000 in some California developments. The company said the event led to gross sales of 2,100 homes, as more than 1,700 potential buyers signed contracts and 400 gave deposits.
The housing market is seeing ``more rapid descent,'' Ara Hovnanian, chief executive officer of the Red Bank, New Jersey- based builder, said yesterday at a conference in New York.
Economists predict the drag from housing is far from over. Declines in residential investment subtracted 0.6 percentage point from growth in the second quarter.
The National Association of Realtors last week cut its home- sales forecast for the ninth time this year and predicted the housing slump will extend into 2008. New-home sales may drop 24 percent on top of an 18 percent fall in 2006, the group said.
