Dear Friends,

 

I am delighted to share the 2010 market forecast by the Sacramento Business Review with you. Already recognized for its credibility and independence, the Sacramento Business Review provides the most thoughtful, intellectually sophisticated, and comprehensive analysis of the Sacramento economy - prepared by the region's very best financial analysts and researchers. To download your free copy please click on the links above.

 

As the world recovers from an economic collapse and the national economy is on the rebound, Sacramento unfortunately remains pressured with continued job losses and heightened uncertainty due to a growing state deficit. Unemployment will worsen beyond the already current record highs, housing and real estate will continue to drift in search of a bottom, bank credit will remain tight, and all of these will compound to weaken the regional economic health. On the bright side, our recession in Sacramento may end as early as the second quarter of 2010, and capital markets provide hope with stable local corporations and the SBR Index outperforming.

 

With this issue, we renew our commitment to deliver the very best economic and financial research to the region. I invite your feedback. Please do not hesitate to let me know how we may improve future issues or if you wish to be a supporting sponsor.

 

Warm regards,

 

Sanjay Varshney, Ph.D., CFA
Dean, College of Business Administration, Sacramento State
