Recent History Of This Indicator:
Appreciation in home prices has been perhaps this year's best economic story, running at roughly a 6 percent annual rate and giving an important lift to household wealth. Yet appreciation has been slowing in recent months in line with weakness in home sales. The FHFA house price index managed only a 0.2 percent monthly gain in July with the rate expected to rise to 0.4 percent in August.
