Sources of momentum loss during 2013
1. Federal contraction—sequestration, shutdown—took up where State govt. left off
2. Tourism was declining for most of 2013: no more room(s)
3. Homebuilding did not break out of its low-level equilibrium trap: no can
4. Construction spending was declining for most of 2013: PV panels are not buildings

GDP to inflate its “association” with other industries using input-output multipliers, which is like doubling everything.

Summary
Macroeconomic outlook
ƒ U.S. real GDP growth forecast: 2% going to 3% (Can Hawaii match that?)
ƒ Private sector growth despite fiscal drag, now coming from federal government
ƒ Oil-driven inflation shocks were temporary; tighter labor markets lurking
ƒ Normalization of monetary policy raising interest rates—more drag
Capacity constraints stifling Hawaii expansion; capital formation “head fake”
ƒ

ƒ
2013 monthly visitor arrivals (s.a.) declined during the course of the year
2013 quarterly real visitor expenditure (s.a.) declined during year
2009–2013 homebuilding lowest for any four-year period since World War II
2013 real contracting receipts (s.a.) declined during year
