Housing Drives Hiring

The good news related to the housing market is coming too fast for me to note all the articles I read.  But occasionally one story stands out, and this Calculated Risk post jumped out to me.  Actually, the Calculated Risk post links to five articles, some that date from February, but all that predict a home construction hiring boom.   The primary story is a recent Deutsche Bank research report estimating the creation of 300,000 new construction jobs in the second half of 2013.  This is a large increase that would have positive impacts for the entire US economy.
