In another sign of a housing market rebound, home prices posted the biggest percentage gain in more than two years in the third quarter, according to the closely followed S&P/Case-Shiller index. The Standard & Poor's/Case Shiller national index measuring prices in 20 cities rose 3% in September compared with the same month a year ago. We are entering the seasonally weak part of the year. Despite the seasons, housing continues to improve.

The Commerce Department said on Tuesday non-defense capital goods orders excluding aircraft, a closely watched proxy for business spending plans, rebounded 1.7% last month after falling 0.4% the prior month.

Despite the headwinds, (fiscal cliff and Europe worries), the manufacturing sector continues to grow, though modestly. Durable goods orders were unchanged in October as gains in machinery, fabricated metal products, and computer and electronic products offset the drag from automobiles, defense and civilian aircraft.

Americans are more optimistic because they see the job market getting better. Employers added 171,000 jobs in October and more jobs were created in August and September than first thought.

This week Beige Report prepared by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, was based on information collected before Nov. 14. There was only modest improvements in hiring activity across the country. The Fed has said it will continue its third round of asset purchases until there is substantial improvement in the labor market. The Fed’s report is a collection of anecdotes from business contracts across the country. It is designed to give the policy makers a feel for economic conditions as they prepare for their next monetary policy meeting on Dec. 11 and 12.

A pickup in consumer spending and steady home sales helped lift economic growth in October and early November in most parts of the United States, according to a Federal Reserve survey Beige Book. The one exception was the Northeast, which was slowed by Superstorm Sandy.

The U.S. economy expanded at 2.7% pace in the third quarter, mostly because of higher inventories and exports. Inventories rose by $61.3 billion in the third quarter compared to $41.4 billion in the second quarter. Exports were revised up to a 1.1% increase from a 1.6% decline and imports were revised to 0.1% rise from a 0.2% drop.�

Pending home sales are now at the highest level since March of 2007 and have risen, on a year-over-year basis, for 18 consecutive months. The activity, however, varies from region to region, and the Realtors say the Northeast, which saw a 0.1% drop in sales month-to-month- did see some impact from Hurricane Sandy.

Jobless Americans have collected more than half a trillion dollars in benefits over the past five years.

While the economy grew 2.7% in the third quarter after advancing 1.3% in the prior three months, much of the boost came from the restocking of goods and robust government spending. That is likely to be lost in the final three months of the year.�
