Overview
• The U.S. economy continues to recover, but at a very modest pace
• Employment growth is thin, in the U.S. and in Kansas City, and by some measures, its worse than we think it is. But U.S. growth is getting stronger.
• Significant risks temper the outlook going forward • The residential real estate market, however, is doing
better
