49. Outlook

50. Jobs State Outlook Continued slowing to 0.2% in 2008 and going negative -1.0% in 2009. Growth around 2.0% after 2009. Davis Sliding to zero job growth in 2008. Slipping to – 0.5% in 2009. Weber Job growth of –0.5% for 2008. Still negative in 2009 at about -1.0%. Manufacturing job losses to continue.

51. Unemployment Increasing in all counties but not accelerating. More “job pausing,” i.e. not hiring, as firms determine which way the economy is going to move. Davis unemployment at 5.0% in 2009 Weber joblessness in the 5.0% to 5.5% range in 2009 Wages – upward pressure subsiding as economy slows. Construction Permitting at low levels but growing in 2009 and 2010 if lending resumes. Total construction activity held together mostly by nonresidential (commercial/industrial) building. Little residential activity until finance industry settles, qualifying standards set, and regulatory resolution known. Spending Slow and cautious. As soon as consumers “perceive” better times they will spend. Issues of income growth, job security, and inflation (energy prices).
