Foreword
This document contains the Oregon economic and revenue forecasts. The Oregon economic
forecast is published to provide information to planners and policy makers in state agencies and
private organizations for use in their decision making processes. The Oregon revenue forecast is
published to open the revenue forecasting process to public review. It is the basis for much of the
budgeting in state government.
The report is issued four times a year; in March, June, September, and December.
The economic model assumptions and results are reviewed by the Department of Administrative
Services Economic Advisory Committee and by the Governor's Council of Economic Advisors.
The Department of Administrative Services Economic Advisory Committee consists of 15
economists employed by state agencies, while the Governor's Council of Economic Advisors is a
group of 12 economists from academia, finance, utilities, and industry.
Members of the Economic Advisory Committee and the Governor's Council of Economic
Advisors provide a two-way flow of information. The Department of Administrative Services
makes preliminary forecasts and receives feedback on the reasonableness of such forecasts and
assumptions employed. After the discussion of the preliminary forecast, the Department of
Administrative Services makes a final forecast using the suggestions and comments made by the
two reviewing committees.
The results from the economic model are in turn used to provide a preliminary forecast for state
tax revenues. The preliminary results are reviewed by the Council of Revenue Forecast Advisors.
The Council of Revenue Forecast Advisors consists of 15 specialists with backgrounds in
accounting, financial planning, and economics. Members bring specific specialties in tax issues
and represent private practices, accounting firms, corporations, government (Oregon Department
of Revenue and Legislative Revenue Office), and the Governors Council of Economic Advisors.
After discussion of the preliminary revenue forecast, the Department of Administrative Services
makes the final revenue forecast using the suggestions and comments made by the reviewing
committee.
Readers who have questions or wish to submit suggestions may contact the Office of Economic
Analysis by telephone at 503-378-3405.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
September 2011
Oregon Economic Forecast
After a very strong start to 2011, the second quarter job growth came in at a very slow pace.
Preliminary estimates place the second quarter growth at 0.7 percent. At least this is the third
consecutive quarter of positive job growth, the longest continuous stretch since the second
quarter of 2007. On a year-over-year (Y/Y) basis, job growth is up 1.4 percent.
While the total estimated job growth for the second quarter is disappointing, the private sector
has been improving. After a rocky start in the first quarter of 2010, the private sector has added
jobs every quarter. More sectors had job gains relative to job losses. Notable job increases are
reported in manufacturing, retail trade, health services, and leisure and hospitality. Some of the
sectors with relatively higher job losses are wood products, food processing, transportation,
warehousing, and utilities, educational services, and other services. Budget shortfalls have
caught up with the public sector, with declines in all three government levels, notable local
government and in particular local education.
The headwinds facing the U.S. economy did not appear to be present in the first quarter in
Oregon, but the second quarter is feeling the effects. Higher gasoline and other commodity
prices are squeezing household budgets. The slowing impacts around the country have come to
Oregon, but the private sector is still producing more jobs, albeit at a relatively slow pace. The
real story of the slow growth in the second quarter is the government sector. Comprising around
18 percent of total employment in Oregon, job losses in this sector will have a damping impact
on the economy moving forward.
At this juncture in the business cycle, using the past two expansions as a guide, the Oregon
economy typically adds around 3,400 jobs per month. Over the past twelve months, Oregon has
added 2,100 jobs per month. There are two main drags on economic growth currently: the
continued delayed improvement in the housing market and the public sector pullback. These two
issues more than account for the discrepancy between the typical expansion employment gains
and the ones we are seeing today. Housing related industries (construction, home and garden
supply stores, mortgage loan brokers and real estate employment) normally add 575 jobs each
month; however over the past year they have added, on average, only 50 jobs per month.
Similarly the public sector typically adds 350 jobs per month, however over the past year,
excluding the temporary Census workers; the public sector has averaged cuts of 475 jobs per
month. This net swing of over 1,300 jobs per month between the past two expansions and today
results in the difference in the total nonfarm employment figures.
The U.S. economy got through the soft patch in 2010 only to hit the headwinds of 2011. The
first half growth of real GDP in 2011 is only 0.8 percent. Personal income growth in June was
only 0.1 percent and consumer spending fell 0.2 percent, the first decline since September 2009.
The ISM Manufacturing Index fell to 50.9, slightly above its expansionary measure of 50.0 and

the fourth monthly decline in the past 5 months. All of this bodes poorly for a second half
rebound for the U.S. economy.
Some of the headwinds in the first half of this year may not be with us in the second half. The
Japan natural disaster should not be squeezing supply chains as the year progresses. The
European debt situation is still unclear with worries arising with Italy and Spain. High
commodity prices are starting to retreat which should help out household budgets.
One piece of good news for the U.S. economy was the July employment report. Unemployment
came down a notch to 9.1 percent and jobs increased by 117,000. But this report brings to
forefront another headwind that has not gotten the attention it deserves. While the private sector
added 154,000 jobs in July, the government sector shed 37,000 jobs. The Minnesota state
government shutdown is likely responsible for about 30,000 jobs in this number and is
temporary. Still, if we take out the entire Minnesota job losses for July, job losses still total over
518,000 since the summer of 2009, a decline of 2.3 percent. The bulk of these job losses are at
the state and local levels. The Center for Budget and Policy Priorities notes that the budget cuts
go beyond the layoffs with 44 states and the District of Columbia engaged in cost saving
measures from furlough days, lower worker benefits, cancelling of contracts with vendors,
reducing payments to businesses and nonprofits, and tax increases. All of these measures to some
degree slow down near term economic activity.
Oregon is similar impacted by the need to balance budgets. State and local governments received
federal stimulus funds during the recession and used budget reserves to avoid deeper cuts during
the recession. Now that these funds are no longer available and tax revenues have not recovered
to meet expenditures, budget tightening is leading to worker layoffs and other spending cuts.
Since the summer of 2009, the June 2011 total government employment in Oregon is down 2.2
percent, or around 6,600 less jobs. Although we do not believe this drop in jobs is enough to stop
the present recovery, with other headwinds impacting the state, the public sector pull back is
still an additional dampening impact on the economy. For a thorough look at the Oregon public
sector employment picture, see our blog and associated listings by clicking here.
http://oregoneconomicanalysis.wordpress.com/2011/07/20/more-on-public-sector-employment/
Although the second quarter of 2011 reported weak but positive job growth, we are not
forecasting a recession for the Oregon economy. Risks of a downturn are heightened and we will
be watching indicators for any further signs of weakening. OEA (Office of Economic Analysis)
forecasts an increase of 0.5 percent in the third quarter of 2011 for total employment and 1.8
percent in the fourth quarter. Job gains continue to improve moving to nearly 2.0 percent in
2012. For the year average in 2011, total employment is projected to increase 1.7 percent and
rise to 1.95 percent in 2012.
Population growth will be slowly picked up along with the economic recovery. Population
growth is forecasted to be 0.7 percent in 2011, 0.8 percent in 2012, and 1.0 percent in 2013.

Forecast Risks

At the very least, the supply chain disruptions from the natural disaster is Japan are fading away.
High commodity prices are retreating though the price of gold dances to different tune. Thats
about it for relief from the headwinds hitting the US and Oregon economies. Congress managed
to cripple together an agreement to raise the debt ceiling only to have S&P downgrade US
Treasury securities and the Dow drops almost 11 percent in 5 days (August 2 8). The risk of
another recession is heightened and the resiliency of the US economy will be tested.
Oregon faces these same headwinds and though our recovery is stronger than the US, it is still
relatively weak and fragile. Our wood products industry will continue to struggle as the housing
market will be slow to recover. Exports have been strong but worries of world financial problems
could slow them down. State and local governments will likely cut more budgets lowering
services and workers.
The color of our outlook has turned more a shade of yellow and less green.
We will continue to monitor and recognize the potential impacts of risk factors on the Oregon
economy. We have identified the major risks now facing the Oregon economy in the list below:
Contagion of the credit crunch and financial market instability. As more time passes, this
downside risk becomes less likely to occur. Credit markets are easing, but consumers and
businesses still have difficulty getting loans. To the extent that credit markets take longer to come
back to some sort of state of normalcy, the current recovery could be slower than projected or
thrown off track. Housing and commercial real estate may take longer for credit conditions to
improve. Oregon will suffer the consequences along with the rest of the nation.
Prolonged housing market instability. Signs are starting to emerge that the housing market has
hit bottom, at least in terms of housing starts, but prices may have further to fall. Foreclosures
and delinquency rates are still relatively high. Oregon, with the rest of the nation, will still see
corrections to the housing market in 2011. The question is whether the job growth will kick in to
alleviate the downward pressures from declining housing prices and oversupply of homes. The
housing market appears to be the biggest threat to a sustained economic recovery in Oregon.
Commodity price inflation. With world economies starting to recover and emerging markets still
strong, the stage is set for higher commodity prices. Food prices are near their 2008 highs. Oil
prices have recently topped $100 a barrel; however WTI is now slightly lower. Industrial metals
are also on the rise. This could be a repeat of commodity price spikes that took place in 2007-2008.
The risk is how disruptive this will be on businesses and whether the commodity price inflation
will lead to general inflation. With a weak recovery that needs to build strength, the commodity
inflation could throw this off track. Then again, if this is only a change in relative prices and wage
costs do not accelerate, this commodity inflation could be short lived.
Loss of federal timber payments to Oregon counties. President Obama included a reduced federal
timber payment package in the 2012 federal budget. The amount has been reduced by 10 percent
and reduces by 20 percent over five years. Questions remain as to whether this item will survive
further budget changes from Congress. If the federal timber payments do not survive, the last
9

payments to counties will be this October. While this temporary reinstatement helps cover short
term budgets for Oregon counties, finding or replacing this dwindling revenue source will be
imperative as any loss of public services could have adverse impacts on economic activity.
Global Spillovers Both Up and Down. The international list of risks seems to change by the day:
sovereign debt problems in Europe, equity and property bubbles in places like South America and
Asia, political unrest in the Middle East, and commodity price spikes and inflationary pressures in
emerging markets. The natural disaster in Japan has caused slight supply chain disruptions to
Oregon firms but the coming reconstruction phase may bring new business. Also internationally
we have economies recovering, incomes rising, and demand for U.S. and Oregon exports are
rising. Whether the downside risks will dissipate and the recoveries take hold will influence the
direction of strength of U.S. and Oregon economic recoveries. With China now the top destination
for Oregon exports, the state of the Chinese economy has spillover effects to the Oregon economy.
State and Local Governments. The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities finds that 44 states and
the District of Columbia are projecting budget shortfalls totaling $125 billion for fiscal year 2012
which generally starts this summer. Local government budget shortfalls add to this total. Oregon is
among the states facing a budget shortfall. Given that further tax increases are unlikely in Oregon,
balancing budgets will mainly be through spending cuts. In a mixed private-public economy, this
will be a drag on the economic recovery. The question is whether the building strength of the
private sector will be enough to continue the recovery through the state and local government
budget crises.
Undoing the Federal Policy Used to Combat the Financial Crisis and Recession. Bailouts, tax
cuts, monetary quantitative easing, and other fiscal packages most likely prevented a more serious
economic downturn. But the clean-up after the storm can have its own risks to the economy. Exit
strategies will have to be carefully implemented to prevent premature tightening and choking off
the recovery or acting too late to avoid an inflationary environment. All states, including Oregon,
face the same risks.
Initiatives, referendums, and referrals. Generally, the ballot box brings a number of unknowns that
could have sweeping impacts on the Oregon economy.
Demographic Forecast

Oregons population count on April 1, 2010 was 3,831,074. Oregon gained 409,550 persons
between the years 2000 and 2010. The population growth between 2000 and 2010 censes was
12.0 percent, down from 20.4 percent growth between 1990 and 2000 censuses. Oregons
rankings in terms of decennial growth rate dropped from 11th between 1990-2000 to 18th between
2000-2010. Slow population growth during the most recent decade due to double recessions
probably cost Oregon one additional seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. Actually,
Oregons decennial population growth rate during the most recent decade was the second lowest
since 1900. The slowest was during the 1980 when Oregon was hit hard by another recession. As
a result of recent economic downturn and sluggish recovery, Oregons population is expected to
continue a slow pace of growth in the near future. Based on the current forecast, Oregons
population will reach 4.28 million in the year 2020 with an annual rate of growth of 1.1 percent
between 2010 and 2020.
10

Oregons economic condition heavily influences the states population growth. Its economy
determines the ability to retain local work force as well as attract job seekers from national and
international labor market. As Oregons total fertility rate remains below the replacement level
and deaths continue to rise due to ageing population, long-term growth comes mainly from net
in-migration. Working-age adults come to Oregon as long as we have good economic and
employment situations. During the 1980s, that included a major recession and a net loss of
population, net migration contributed to 22 percent of the population change. On the other
extreme, net migration accounted for 73 percent of the population change during the booming
economy of 1990s. This share of migration to population change declined to 56 percent in 2002
and it was further down to 34 percent in 2010. As a sign of slow to modest economic gain, the
ratio of net migration-to-population change will increase gradually and will reach 67 percent by
the end of the forecast horizon. Although economy and employment situation in Oregon look
stagnant at this time, migration situation is not expected to replicate the early 1980s pattern.
Potential Oregon out-migrants have no better place to go since other states are also in the same
boat in terms of economy and employment.
Age structure and its change affect employment, state revenue, and expenditure. Growth in many
age groups will show the effects of the baby-boom and their echo generations during the period
of 2010-2020. It will also reflect demographics impacted by the depression era birth cohort
combined with diminished migration of the working age population and elderly retirees. After a
period of slow, and even negative, growth during the 1990s and the first half of the last decade,
the elderly population (65+) has picked up a faster pace of growth and will surge as the babyboom generation continue to enter this age group. The average annual growth of the elderly
population will be 3.9 percent during the forecast period as the boomers continue to enter
retirement age. However, the youngest elderly (aged 65-74) will grow at an extremely fast pace
during the forecast period, averaging 4.8 percent annual rate of growth due to the direct impact
of the baby-boom generation entering retirement age. Reversing several years of shrinking
population, the elderly aged 75-84 will start a positive growth as the effect of depression era
birth-cohort will dissipate. The oldest elderly (aged 85+) will continue to grow at a moderately
but steady rate due to the combination of cohort change, continued positive net migration, and
improving longevity. However, the annual growth rate will continue to taper off as the
depression era small birth cohort transitions from the younger age group.
As the baby-boom generation matures out of oldest working-age cohort combined with slowing
net migration, the once fast-paced growth of population aged 45-64 will gradually taper off to
below zero percent rate by 2012 and will remain at slow or below zero growth phase for several
years. The young adult population (aged 18-24) will change only a little and remain virtually
unchanged for most of the years into the future. Although the slow or stagnant growth of collegeage population (age 18-24), in general, tend to ease the pressure on public spending on higher
education, college enrollment typically goes up during the time of high unemployment and
scarcity of well paying jobs when even the older people flock back to college to better position
themselves in a tough job market. The growth rate for children under the age of five will remain
below zero percent in the near future and will see positive growth only after 2013. Although the
number of children under the age of five will decline slightly in the near future, the demand for
child care services and pre-Kindergarten program will be additionally determined by the labor

11

force participation of the parents. The growth in K-12 population (aged 5-17) will remain low
which will translate into slow growth in school enrollments. This school-age population has
actually declined in size in recent years and will grow in the future at well below the state
average. The 25-44 age group population has reversed several years of declining trend during the
early part of the last decade and before. The decline was mainly due to the exiting baby-boom
cohort. This age group has seen positive growth starting in the year 2004 and will increase by
1.2 percent annual average rate during the forecast horizon. Overall, elderly population over age
65 will increase rapidly whereas population groups under age 65 will experience slow growth in
the coming decade.
Revenue Forecast
The outlook for revenue growth in Oregon is threatened by the uncertainty surrounding the
nascent recovery in the regional job market. Given how fragile consumer and business
confidence have become, downside risks to the forecast have clearly intensified in recent weeks.
Through a lack of confidence, the troubles in Europe, Washington D.C., and on Wall Street may
well infect the local economy going forward. That said, all of Oregons core measures of
economic activity (private employment, earnings and tax collections) are still expanding--albeit
at disappointing rates. In particular, until we see private employers cutting jobs, it is difficult to
argue that Oregons economic expansion has ended.
Although the turmoil in financial markets is not expected to derail Oregons economic recovery,
it will nevertheless create additional headwinds for growth. Most notably, wealth losses suffered
in stock markets can be expected to put downward pressure on household spending, and will
result in fewer tax collections tied to realizations of capital gains.
Despite these challenges, the baseline (most likely) forecast has not been revised downward
drastically at this time. However, the risks to the outlook are clearly skewed to the downside.
There is around a one in three chance that the U.S. economy will slip back into recession, which
would certainly drag Oregons regional economy down with it. In such a scenario, the forecast
for tax revenues would fall drastically.
After the smoke clears, revenue growth in Oregon and other states will face considerable
downward pressure over the 10-year extended forecast horizon. As the baby boom population
cohort works less and spends less, traditional state tax instruments such as personal income taxes
and general sales taxes will become less effective, and revenue growth will fail to match the pace
seen during recent periods of economic expansion.
2011-13 General Fund Revenues
Led by personal income tax collections, general fund revenues are posting large gains entering
the 2011-13 biennium. Temporary factors will help support healthy growth in personal income
tax collections in the near term, but growth in collections will lose a steam in the second half of
the biennium. Corporate tax collections are now falling rapidly, with the boom in underlying
corporate profits having come to an end.

12

Due in roughly equal parts to losses to labor earnings and to investment forms of income, the
outlook for the 2011-13 biennium is somewhat weaker than what was predicted in the May 2011
forecast. The forecast for General Fund revenues for 2011-13 is now $13,816 million. This
represents a decrease of $62.0 million (-0.4%) from the May 2011 forecast. Excluding policy
changes and fund transfers, general fund revenues are expected to be $192.6 million (-1.4%)
lower than in May.

General Fund revenues will total $15,932 million in 2013-15, an increase of 15.1% percent from
the prior period, and $206 million (1.3%) below the May forecast. In 2015-17, revenue growth
will moderate to 11.6%, followed by 12.0% growth in 2017-19 and slower rates of around 10%
to in subsequent biennia. The slowdown in long-run revenue growth is largely due to the impact
of demographic changes. Revenues in 2015-17 and beyond are expected to be smaller than in the
May forecast, largely due to the downgraded outlook for job growth. Table B.2 in Appendix
presents a more detailed look at the long-term General Fund revenue forecast.

A Positive Signal at Last More Needed.
With mostly soft data signals coming in, one bright spot was the uptick in the June national ISM
manufacturing survey. The June ISM report also showed a noticeable decline in the prices index,
indicating some relieve from rising costs. The first half of the year suffered from rising
commodity costs, supply-chain disruptions from Japans natural disaster and severe weather
conditions domestically. The June ISM improvement is consistent with IHS Global Insights
view of better growth in the second half of this year, though more positive signals are needed to
make this case. (The national June employment report came out after the publication of the July
Forecast Flash. The rather dismal employment numbers are not helping to make the case for a
stronger second half.) Calendar year forecasts for GDP are 2.5 percent for 2011 and 2.6 percent
for 2012.
Second Quarter Little Different from the First. Second quarter GDP growth expected at 1.9
percent, same as the first quarter. (Advance estimate of second quarter GDP growth is 1.3
percent. Revised estimate of first quarter GDP growth is 0.4 percent OEA.) Initial Consumer
spending will slow in the second quarter to 0.6 percent compared to 2.2 percent in the first
quarter. This slowing is caused by drops in light-vehicle sales due to the Japan natural disaster
and higher gasoline prices impacting household budgets. Other components of GDP are expected
to improve in the second quarter. Construction should rise due to better weather and defense
spending is expected to come back from an unusual drop in the first quarter.
The Second Half Remains the Big Question Mark. IHS Global Insight projects better growth
in the second half of 3.2 percent compared to the 1.9 percent growth in the first half. This
stronger second half is dependent on a number of factors: production of vehicles returns to a
more normal state, temporary acceleration of business equipment spending to take advantage of
generous depreciation allowances this year, and continued improvement on gas prices moving
down to $3.40 per gallon by the fourth quarter.

Oil Reserves Release Helps Only Temporarily. The 60 million barrels of oil released from the
strategic reserves (30 million barrels in the United States) had a temporary impact on lowering
oil prices, but this amount of oil only represents less than one days global consumption. IHS
Global Insight has dropped their projection for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) price of oil from
$104 to $94 for the third quarter. Going forward the price of oil is little changed with prices
averaging $104 per barrel in 2012.
The Risk of a Self-Inflecting Wound: The Debt Ceiling. The need to raise the debt ceiling by
the drop-dead day, August 2, remains a potentially disruptive wild card. An agreement on
substantial spending cuts appears within reach but the stumbling block is whether Republicans
will accept some revenue increase to accompany the spending cuts. If negotiators are
deadlocked, a short-term fix raising the ceiling just for a few months would be better than rising
the consequences of hitting the ceiling. (As of July 22, negotiations are still underway.)
QE II Has Ended; No QE III. The Federal Reserve states it has no plans to implement a QE III
program of quantitative easing. Slow growth in the economy suggests no plans to raise interest
rates in the near term. IHS Global Insight delays their assumption about a Fed interest rate hike
from March 2012 to September 2012, with the possibility that the Fed may not raise rates until
2013. (Note that since the release of the July forecast, the U.S. Federal Reserve has made a
public statement that it given the current state of the economy and expectations moving forward,
it will not raise rates for two years, or until mid-2013.)

International Review and Outlook

This edition of the International Review and Outlook contains information written by Adrienne
Mack, Research Analyst with the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. The following section was
originally published as the International Economic Update, dated August 10, 2011, and is
reprinted here in accordance with the Banks disclaimer and privacy policy.
Growth Stalls as Economies Adjust
Following the moderation in the first quarter of 2011, global growth is expected to continue
decelerating throughout the year. Both advanced and emerging economies are seeing economic
performance slow.
Mounting government debt is the main contributor to the diminished outlook for the advanced
economies, especially in the euro area. The emerging economies continue to fight inflation, with
high food prices producing additional price pressures. Monetary authorities have adopted
contractionary policies in an attempt to control rising inflation, and these policies have facilitated
weaker economic activity.
Evident in this recent economic slowdown is how interconnected economies have become. An
optimal strategy for promoting global growth requires the stabilization of both advanced and
emerging economies.
Uncertainty Rises with Sovereign Debt Debates
Advanced economies are suffering from high public debt levels. Austerity measures are
necessary, but the structures for new budget plans are under much debate. Market uncertainty has
heightened as the effectiveness of current and future plans are called into question. Stock
markets in the U.S. and euro area have declined substantially as investors seek safer asset options
amid falling growth potential.
Switzerland has become an attractive destination for investors. Exchange rates show investors
prefer to hold Swiss francs over the U.S. dollar and the euro. Switzerland serves as a beacon of
hope for debt-laden countries; after struggling with high sovereign debt in the 1990s, the nation
adopted strict austerity measures to promote a balanced budget, contributing to its stable
economy.
Europe Placed in the Spotlight
Sovereign debt issues in the European periphery pose the greatest risk because of the possibility
of contagion with other euro-area economies. On July 21, European leaders agreed to extend
financial relief measures: Previous loan conditions were eased, and Greece was granted an
additional bailout package. Despite this aid, the markets are still cautious. Subsequent
movements in 10-year bond-yield spreads suggest uncertainty remains due to fears of a possible
default by Spain or Italy.
These spreads show differences in bond yields when compared with the German equivalent,
which is viewed as a safe investment. A rising spread is indicative of a risky asset. Spreads for
21

Spain and Italy hit record highs. In two weeks, beginning on July 25, spreads rose 19 percent for
Spain and 32 percent for Italy. Though Spain and Italy are not at risk for immediate default,
some doubt the ability of the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) to supply adequate
funds on a longer-term basis. The debt obligations for those countries in more immediate risk of
default surpass the lending capacity of the EFSF. If Italy or Spain were to default as well, the
funds would not be available to assuage the situation.
Debt Affects European Economy
The sovereign debt crisis is having a negative impact on the euro area's economic performance.
The Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) for the euro area indicates both the manufacturing and
service sector are dangerously close to contraction levels. PMIs closely follow the economic
performance for the overall economy. Thus, gross domestic product (GDP) growth is expected to
decline in the second quarter of 2011. The downward trend of the PMIs suggests a further
decrease in GDP growth.
Germany has been a growth leader in the euro area, but the underperformance of other
economies has caused a drop in German exports. Exports are a major contributor to German
GDP growth; on average, 42 percent of Germany's exports go to the euro area. As GDP growth
slows in the euro area, so will Germany's exports. German exports fell 2.6 percent from March to
April. The deceleration of emerging economies has also affected the German export sector.
Emerging Economies Slow Amid Inflation Battles
Emerging economies continue to face inflationary pressures due to high capital inflows. Rising
food prices have added to these pressures. Changes in the consumer price index (CPI) are used to
measure inflation. The CPI tracks prices for a select bundle of goods, which is determined by the
consumption habits of an economy. The CPI composition for emerging economies is heavily
weighted in food. Thus, high food prices have a disproportionate effect on inflation in the
emerging economies. For example, food and beverages comprise 31 percent of the CPI in Brazil
and 48 percent in India, compared with 15 percent in the U.S.
Monetary authorities are vigilantly raising policy rates to combat rising inflation. Since the
beginning of 2011, Brazil has increased its policy rate five times, with the latest increase
occurring in July. China also increased rates in July, the third time this year. India raised rates in
June, its fourth increase this year.
The latest PMI data for the manufacturing sectors in Brazil and China indicate these tightening
measures have successfully slowed down their economies. China's PMI dropped to 50.7 in July.
Brazil's PMI reached contractionary levels in June and dropped even further in July to 47.9. As
these economies begin to slow, their inflation rates should fall. This will help moderate capital
inflows.
Momentum Expected to Rebound in 2012
The recent economic slowdown highlights the growing effects of globalization. Countries that
were regional growth leaders are starting to be affected by the poor performance of other
economies through the export sector. High inflation in emerging economies has prompted policy
22

contraction, stalling the main contributors of global


growth. However, such policy responses should be
viewed as attempts to promote long-term global
growth. As interest rate differentials begin to lessen,
capital flows will be redirected to advanced
economies, and this increased investment will help
stimulate economies whose public funds are strained.
The efficiency of market stabilization is contributing
to higher growth prospects for 2012. -- Adrienne

Table I.1 shows IHS Global Insights country specific


economic forecasts as of July 11, 2011. In its global forecast, IHS Global Insight cites some
issues to watch to gauge future trends of the global economy. First, commodity prices now face a
number of downward pressures in the near term. After rising substantially, and quickly, in early
2011, commodity prices have fallen somewhat recently, partially driven by monetary policy
restraint in China and other key markets. The Greek sovereign debt, the end of quantitative
easing by the U.S. Federal Reserve and
the usual summer slowdowns in the Table I.2

IHS Global Insights July 2011 global forecast discusses highlights from the world economy and
regional issues as well. Just as the U.S. economy has encountered a soft patch of growth in early
2011, the global economy has too, however a return to recession in unlikely even if the
probability of such an event has increased. Deleveraging and tightening fiscal policies are
contributing to the developed countries slow recoveries. Given this, the worlds real GDP is
expected to increase 3.4 percent in 2011, somewhat slower than 2010s 4.1 percent growth. On a
regional basis, the expected growth slowdown in the Eurozone is materializing given sub-1.0
percent growth in each of the first two quarters of 2011. Even with the European Union and
International Monetary Fund providing the necessary support to meet Greeces financing through
2012, a sovereign debt restructuring is likely in 2013 or 2014. Greeces debt is projected to reach
157 percent of GDP in 2012, which represents an unsustainable level given the countrys dire
economic outlook and record-high bond yields. Finally, IHS Global Insight discusses the fact
that local government/provinces debt in China has emerged as a major risk to the countrys
growth. The National Audit Office reported that local debt increased to over $1.6 trillion (10.7
trillion yuan) at the end of 2010. This figure represents about 33 percent of Chinas GDP.
Oregon Exports
U.S. exports have increased quarter-over-quarter since 2009 Q1. With nine such increases in a
row, national exports in 2011 Q2 set a new record in terms of total dollar value (nominal) of U.S.
exports. Oregon exports have followed the same general pattern over the past two years;
however in mid-2010, Oregon exports declined slightly primarily caused by a decline in high
technology exports to Asia before resuming strong growth in the most recent quarters. Strong
gains the past three quarters have Oregon exports nearly back to pre-recession levels. State
exports declined 38.8 percent between their peak in 2008 Q3 and their recession lows in 2009
Q1. Since then, exports have increased substantially and the current levels of exports are just 7.6
percent below their historic highs. In fact, Oregon exports in the second quarter were the third
highest level of exports on record, trailing only the second and third quarters of 2008.

Western Region

This section of the September forecast examines the economies of seven western states and their
relative performance to the U.S. overall. Gauging the health of local economies is important for
business planning purposes and looking at a wide range of data points is useful. Below, you will
find tables analyzing how Oregons economy is fairing compared to the following western states:
Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, Utah and Washington.
Employment
The slowdown in economic activity in the first half of 2011 has likewise resulted in slower job
growth in recent months. Even with this slowing, jobs continue to expand on a monthly basis
across the nation and the western states (except Idaho in 2011 Q2). On a year-over-year basis, all
western states have seen job gains except Nevada. At the national level, total nonfarm
employment increased 0.8 percent year-over-year which marks the third consecutive positive
value. Table W.1 details employment by major sector for each of the western states and their
respective year-over-year changes.

Oregons strong job gains over the past year have the state ranked thirteenth best in the country
in year-over-year percentage change for the month of June. Among western states, Oregons
growth only trails Utahs. Within employment, it is interesting to note the composition of growth
across the states. In particular for Oregon, the states growth within goods producing sectors is
outpacing our neighboring states. Oregons construction growth is best compared to the nation
and western states. Oregons trade, transportation and utilities growth is tied with Utah for the
fastest, while Oregons manufacturing growth is second fastest. Given that these are the
industries that were hardest hit during the recession, it is good news to see relatively strong
growth today.

western states except Utah.
Economic Coincident Index

the data is designed to report current economic conditions on a monthly basis, and is not a
leading or a lagging indicator.
On a year-over-year basis, Nevada continues to be the worst performing western state, a result of
continued job losses and high unemployment rate. Oregons index, after growing moderately
through 2010, has turned strongly positive in the past six months. Oregons 4.2 percent growth in
the past year betters all other western states and also the U.S. average. Oregons quarter-overquarter growth ranks fifth best nationally, Oregons year-over-year increase ranks fourth best
nationally and Oregons five year percentage change ranks twenty-sixth best nationally.
Housing Price Index
Many of the western states have
been hit hard by the housing boom
and subsequent bust. Table W.4
shows the Federal Housing Finance
Agencys home price index for each
western state. Graph W.2 shows the
FHFA Housing Price Index for each
of the western states since 2000.
While the data is typically indexed
to 1991, for graphing purposes, the
data is indexed 2000 = 100 to
illustrate the home price changes
over the past decade.
Prices
in
Arizona,
Nevada and California all
at least doubled between
2000 and 2006. By 2007
and 2008 prices in
Oregon and Washington
had increased over 80
percent, while Idaho and
Nevada
experienced
gains over 60 percent.
Since that time, prices
have declined across all
western states by at least
20 percent.

Housing Permits
With the large home price declines across the nation in recent
years and an oversupply of houses on the market, there has
been very little new construction relative to historical levels.
One measure used to gauge new home construction is
housing permits issued, shown in Table W.5. It appears that
each passing year brings worse news for new home
construction. 2009 was worse than 2008 which was worse
than 2007. After a mixed bag in 2010, expectations were for
at least some semblance of stability in 2011; however the first
six months figures for permits indicate no such stability as
the numbers are substantially lower than early 2010 figures.

All western states and the nation have seen a decline in permits issued, except for California.
Across locales, the sub-industry experiencing any growth is the multi-family market as single
family homes continue to remain at depressed levels in terms of both sales and new construction.
While multi-family permits have increased, these gains have not been large enough to offset the
declines in single family homes in most locations. California is the exception among western
states as their multi-family permits have increased 46 percent through the first six months, even
though single family permits in the state have declined 13 percent. In Oregon, multi-family
permits have increased 36 percent and single family permits have declined 20 percent.
Exports
The global recession decimated international trade throughout
late 2008 and early 2009; however exports have rebounded
sharply since around mid-2009. As show in Table W.6, on a
year-over-year basis most states and the nation overall are
experiencing sizable increases in trade, with only Oregon
failing to reach double digit growth in the second quarter.
Oregons figures, as detailed in the International Section, are
attributable to high technology exports to Asia declining in
recent months, even though all other Oregon exports are
increasing over 30 percent on a year-over-year basis.

Even with the sizable increases in recent months, the nation


and western states exports remain slightly below their peak levels achieved during the summer
of 2008.
Tax Revenue
While the recession pummeled tax revenues for all states during the 2007 through early 2010
period, the past four quarters (2010 Q2 2011 Q1) have brought good news to most state coffers
in the form of positive revenue growth. Table W.7 shows tax revenue by major revenue source
for 2011 Q1, along with year-over-year percent changes, for the western states. Every western
state has seen state and local tax revenues increase over the past year. While in previous quarters,
growth has originated primarily through business taxes (gross receipts, income, etc) due to the
32

very high profitability of businesses in 2010, the current growth is a result of increased sales tax
collections and personal income tax collections. While many business (typically the largest)
remain highly profitable, this profitability has not increased further, making year ago
comparisons more difficult and expectations are for business tax receipts to decline in the
coming year. On the personal or consumer side of the ledger, these tax collections are increasing
and are expected to continue to do so throughout the expansion. As more and more individuals
are able to find jobs, and wages increase, consumers spend more money on purchases and their
income tax liabilities increase. The data below reflect this pattern.

As shown in the employment table at the beginning of this section (Table W.1), government
employment in each western state has declined in the past year, with further decreases expected
over the next year. This is a direct result of how governments budget, which makes the public
sector late comers to recessions. With the ARRA federal monies coming to an end, and states
beginning new fiscal years (and/or biennium), the recessions impact is just now being fully felt
in many states budgets. While increasing tax revenues will alleviate some of the program
reductions this year, these gains are not enough to offset the loss of federal monies and depleted
reserve funds.

Oregon Economic Review and Forecast

Summary of Recent Trends


Statewide Trends
After a very strong start to 2011, the second quarter job growth came in at a very slow pace.
Preliminary estimates place the second quarter growth at 0.7 percent. At least this is the third
consecutive quarter of positive job growth, the longest continuous stretch since the second
quarter of 2007. On a year-over-year (Y/Y) basis, job growth is up 1.4 percent.
While the total estimated job growth for the second quarter is disappointing, the private sector
has been improving. After a rocky start in the first quarter of 2010, the private sector has added
jobs every quarter. More sectors had job gains relative to job losses. Notable job increases are
reported in manufacturing, retail trade, health services, and leisure and hospitality. Some of the
sectors with relatively higher job losses are wood products, food processing, transportation,
warehousing, and utilities, educational services, and other services. Budget shortfalls have
caught up with the public sector, with declines in all three government levels, notable local
government and in particular local education.
The headwinds facing the U.S. economy did not appear to be present in the first quarter in
Oregon, but the second quarter is feeling the effects. Higher gasoline and other commodity
prices are squeezing household budgets. The slowing impacts around the country have come to
Oregon, but the private sector is still producing more jobs, albeit at a relatively slow pace. The
real story of the slow growth in the second quarter is the government sector. Comprising around
18 percent of total employment in Oregon, job losses in this sector will have a damping impact
on the economy moving forward.
The most recent Blue Chip Job Figure O.1
Growth rankings place Oregon
13th in the nation for Y/Y job
growth. Between July 2010 and

Industry Trends
Right now the economy is growing at a frustratingly slow pace and employment gains are not
strong enough to bring down the unemployment rate quickly. As of today there are two main
drags on the recovery: the delayed improvement in the housing market and the public sector
pullback. The housing market is not a new issue and has been and is expected to continue to be a
negative factor on the recovery, or at least not a strong positive. Once the existing overhang of
inventories, including some of the shadow inventory and foreclosures, are whittled down further,
then the rebound in new construction can take full force and drive economic growth. Reasonable
estimates of when this may occur fall in the 2014 2016 timeframe.
The public sector pullback is a relatively new drag on the economy. Initially, largely driven by
the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the public sector was an economic driver

drags are impacting job
growth in Oregon.
It is interesting to note that the private sector excluding housing is currently expanding at a
slightly above average pace, relative to the two previous economic expansions in Oregon. That
means 75 percent of all industries, or employment, is growing more quickly today than in past
recoveries. Unfortunately the impact from the two main drags is holding total nonfarm
employment from growing at a similar pace. Typically, housing related industries add 575 jobs
per month and the public sector adds 350 jobs per month. In the past year, these industries have
added only 50 jobs per month and cut jobs at a 675 per month pace, respectively. It is true that
the temporary Census workers are included in some of the public sector cuts; however, once
these jobs are accounted for the public sector has cut employment by 475 per month, on average.
In total, between the two drags, instead of adding a combined 925 jobs per month, these
industries have actually been cutting 425 jobs per month (ex-Census), a net swing of over 1,300
jobs every single month. If these industries were able to increase employment at their typical
pace, total nonfarm employment in Oregon would be growing extremely well by historical
standards and the unemployment rate would be declining more quickly.
36

Methodology Notes: The typical expansion is defined here for these purposes as the average of the 1992-1999 and
2004-2007 periods. Housing related industries include all construction employment, building material and garden
supply stores, mortgage loan brokers and real estate employees. The past year is the July 2010 to July 2011 time
period.

Table O.1 shows a comparison of preliminary estimates for second quarter Oregon employment
growth compared to the May 2011 forecast. Table O.1 also provides forecast errors and Y/Y
growth. While percent change in the preliminary estimate shows the most recent development in
the employment front, Y/Y growth indicates what has happened over a years time. Unless
37

noted otherwise, the employment figures are seasonally adjusted, and all percentage rates
discussed below reflect annualized rates of change for second quarter 2011. When the
preliminary estimate is lower than OEAs forecast, forecast error is shown as negative. Positive
forecast error then means that the preliminary estimate came in higher than OEAs forecast.
The preliminary estimate for second quarter job growth was less than the forecast, with an error
of 0.5 percent. The slower job growth figure follows the U.S. job picture with lackluster growth
in the second quarter. This is a bit disappointing following the robust growth in Oregon of 4.9
percent in the first quarter.
The private sector has fared better than the public sector through this recovery period, adding
5,160 jobs for an increase of 1.6 percent. Manufacturing was up 3.8 percent while private
nonmanufacturing was up 1.2 percent. The government sector lost 2,410 jobs for a decline of 3.2
percent and a Y/Y decline of 2.2 percent.
Within manufacturing, durable goods employment increased a strong 7.2 percent, adding 2,050
jobs. Wood products was the only sector in this category to see a decline. With housing still not
coming back, this sector lost jobs at 6.9 percent. Other durables, which include electrical
equipment, appliance, and furniture products, increased a healthy 25.8 percent, adding 1,090
jobs. Metals and machinery had a job gain of 7.3 percent. Computer and electronic products
gained 540 jobs for an increase of 6.2 percent. Transportation equipment sector posted a gain of
7.2 percent. Durable goods manufacturing has been a leading growth sector for the past two
quarters. Increased Oregon exports are part of the story for this strength.
Food processing, a highly seasonal sector, decreased jobs by 6.9 percent. Even with this decline,
this sector still has more jobs now than at the start of the recession, adding 2,740 jobs since the
first quarter of 2008. Other nondurable goods manufacturing, this includes paper and allied
products, declined slightly at the rate of 0.1 percent.
In the private nonmanufacturing sector, construction increased jobs by 3.6 percent. Its Y/Y
growth is now at 2.0 percent, a rate not seen since the third quarter of 2007. Construction
employment is still down almost 36,000 jobs or 34.4 percent since the recent high employment
in the first quarter of 2007.
Even though recent news has shown a slowdown in consumer spending, the retail trade jobs were
up 4.2 percent. The Y/Y growth for this sector is up 3.4 percent. Wholesale trade jobs rose
slightly by 0.6 percent. Transportation, warehousing, and utilities declined by 2.7 percent.
Financial services added jobs at a rate of 1.0 percent for a second consecutive quarter.
Professional and business services showed a surprise drop in jobs of 2.2 percent. This decline
follows a string of job gains going back to the fourth quarter of 2009. Information jobs, which
include publishers of software, added jobs at a rate of 1.0 percent. Leisure and hospitality
increased jobs by 4.4 percent is now up by 3.4 percent in Y/Y growth.
Private education service is a volatile sector with wide swings in job changes. This quarter
shows up as a 3.6 percent decline with Y/Y growth of 0.9 percent. Health services continue to
be one of the stronger sectors with job growth of 3.5 percent.

38

Other services that include personal, repair, and maintenance decreased by 7.3 percent. Possibly
the higher commodity prices (e.g., oil and thus gasoline, food) squeezed households budgets
impacting sales in this sector.
While the private sector is struggling through this recovery with mild job growth, the
government sector is cutting jobs. Federal government employment is down 8.0 percent. As tax
revenues have not grown to replace temporary federal stimulus money, state and local
governments are cutting services. State government is down only 0.7 percent, mainly because
state education is up 3.6 percent. Public colleges are countercyclical to the recession as more
students enroll and pay tuition. Local government jobs are down by 3.5 percent, and unlike state
education, local education is more dependent on tax revenues and jobs are down 4.7 percent.
Regional Trends
Total nonfarm employment in Oregon increased 1.3 percent from the second quarter of 2010 to
the second quarter of 2011. In recent months, government job losses have weighed down
improvements in the private sector. Private employment gains stood at 2.2 percent over the
second quarter of 2010, while the public sector declined by the same percentage. Census
employment in 2010 continues to affect over-the-year trends in government, as those jobs were
temporary.
Oregons overall employment trend turned positive in the fourth quarter of 2010, which showed
a slight increase over the year after nine consecutive quarters with a year-over-year decline.
Many rural regions of Oregon endured longer declines. Generally, regional employment losses
were most severe in the second and third quarters of 2009. Losses moderated in 2010 and growth
resumed in the first quarter of 2011. By the second quarter of 2011, every region except the
Portland area had dipped back into negative territory.
Regional unemployment rates (not seasonally adjusted) in the second quarter ranged from a low
of 8.5 percent in the Portland area to a high of 12.0 percent in Southern Oregon. In every region,
unemployment rates were significantly lower than last year. Statewide, the unadjusted June 2011
unemployment rate was 9.7 percent, nearly matching the national rate of 9.6 percent.
Employment Gains Slow in the Portland Area:
Clackamas, Columbia, Multnomah, Washington, and Yamhill counties
Employment losses in the Portland area began in the fourth quarter of 2008, and accelerated until
the third quarter of 2009 before beginning to moderate. In the third quarter of 2010, employment
growth resumed and job gains followed through the first quarter of 2011. Nonfarm job counts in
the second quarter of 2011 slowed but growth continued at a rate of 1.0 percent over the year.
By county, second quarter employment growth was fastest in Washington (+1.3%), while
Multnomah and Yamhill tied (+0.5%). After slight growth in the first quarter of 2011,
Clackamas employment dropped (-1.4%). Columbia County has yet to see positive growth, and
dropped 2.3 percent between the second quarter of 2010 and the second quarter of 2011.
Of 11 broad industry sectors, seven showed employment gains in the Portland area from June
2010 to June 2011. Manufacturing and education and health services grew the fastest, and
39

together added over 5,000 jobs. Professional and business services also gained a significant
number of jobs (+1,750), as did trade, transportation, and utilities (+670). Construction grew 1.0
percent over the year, driven by growth in Multnomah and Washington counties.
Government and other services had lower job counts in June 2011 than one year earlier,
declining 4.0 percent and 1.7 percent, respectively.
The unemployment rate in the Portland region was the lowest in the state, at 8.5 percent in the
second quarter of 2011. The rate dropped 1.4 percentage points from the prior year.
Job Growth Stalls in Willamette Valley:
Benton, Lane, Linn, Marion, and Polk counties
The Willamette Valley posted its first over-the-year jobs loss at the same time as the state, in the
third quarter of 2008. Over the next two years, the rate of local job loss essentially mirrored the
statewide average. As the state resumed growth in the final quarter of 2010, regional job gains
lagged behind. The area experienced negative over-the-year job growth in every quarter since
the recession began, except for the slight gain in the first quarter of 2011 (+0.1%). In the second
quarter, declines returned (-0.5%).
Benton was the only county in the region with positive employment gains, adding about 900 jobs
between the second quarter of 2010 and the second quarter of 2011. Lane County followed the
overall regional trend, dropping 0.1 percent. Linn County also saw jobs decline 0.6 percent over
the year, with job losses continuing for the 11th consecutive quarter (-1.6%).
Seven of 11 broad industries lost employment in the region between June 2010 and June 2011.
Government had the highest job losses, most from local government
(-1,630). Retail trade and construction saw the next greatest losses, at 360 and 180 jobs,
respectively.
Three broad sectors showed growth over the year. Education and health services added the most
jobs regionally (+320), predominately in the Salem metro area. Leisure and hospitality added
240 jobs on net, driven entirely by growth in Benton and Lane counties. Although Linn County
added 270 manufacturing jobs over the year, employment in this industry dropped within the
whole region (-0.2%).
In the second quarter of 2011, the Willamette Valleys unemployment rate was 9.5 percent. The
rate dropped 1.3 percentage points over the year.
Employment Gains Limited along the Coast:
Clatsop, Coos, Curry, Lincoln, and Tillamook counties
Employment declines in Oregons coastal counties began in the second half of 2007. Over-theyear losses were fairly mild through 2008 but became severe in 2009. Losses moderated in the
first half of 2010, and the third quarter of 2010 brought the coasts first over-the-year job gains.
Growth accelerated in the first quarter of 2011, but declines resumed in the second quarter (0.4%).

40

Every county on the coast posted employment gains by the final quarter of 2010, which
continued through the first quarter of 2011. In the second quarter of 2011, over-the year job
losses resumed in Lincoln (-1.9%), Curry (-0.7%), and Tillamook (-0.2%), while Clatsop and
Coos remained positive. Employment growth in Coos County slowed to 0.2 percent over the
second quarter of 2010, while Clatsop saw double this growth rate.
Less than half of the regions 11 broad industrial sectors gained jobs over the year. Leisure and
hospitality added the most at 370, followed by 180 jobs in professional and business services.
Educational and health services saw mild growth among all counties, increasing employment by
140. Other services added a few jobs in each of the coastal counties, totaling up to 90 over the
year.
Trade, transportation, and utilities; manufacturing; and construction dropped around 120 to 190
jobs each, while government dropped 670 jobs over the past year. Mining and logging remained
flat.
Since the second quarter of 2010, the coastal regions unemployment rate dropped 1.0
percentage point to 9.8 percent.
Southern Oregon Counties Stuck in Neutral:
Douglas, Jackson, and Josephine counties
Over-the-year employment declines in Southern Oregon began in mid-2007. The region endured
the longest slide in the state, with 14 consecutive quarters of decline. Losses peaked at nearly 8
percent in the second quarter of 2009. The area resumed over-the-year job growth in the first
quarter of 2011 (+0.7%), but these gains were erased in the second quarter of 2011, when
employment matched the level in the second quarter of 2010.
Between second quarters 2010 and second quarter 2011, Josephine County lost 0.4 percent of
employment. Jackson County has been the main driver of job growth in the region, adding about
the same number of jobs in each of the last two quarters (0.7%). After 18 consecutive quarters of
job loss, declines continued in Douglas County (-1.3%).
Five of areas 11 broad sectors showed growth over the year ending in June 2011. Professional
and business services was the only industry to see gains in every county, adding a total of 360
jobs. Due to large gains in retail trade in Jackson County, trade, transportation and utilities also
had a strong showing (+520). Leisure and hospitality tallied an increase of 110 jobs over the
year, while educational and health services and other services racked up about 40 jobs each.
The region continues to struggle in sectors hard hit by the recent recession. Construction dropped
3.5 percent between June 2010 and June 2011, with the170 job loss concentrated in Jackson (130) and Josephine (-50). Government dropped 560 jobs over the year, most at the federal level.
Southern Oregons 12.0 percent unemployment rate in the second quarter of 2011 was the
highest regional unemployment rate in the state. The rate has dropped 1.3 percentage points over
the past year.

Mixed Job Growth in Central Oregon:


Crook, Deschutes, Gilliam, Hood River, Jefferson, Klamath, Lake, Sherman, Wasco, and
Wheeler counties
Central Oregons employment began to dive in 2008. Declines accelerated and reached a low
point in mid-2009, when employment was down nearly 9.0 percent from mid-2008. Losses in
Deschutes County accounted for the majority of the Central Oregon decline. Over-the-year job
losses eased in 2010, but resumed in the second quarter of 2011 (-1.2%).
Of the 10 Central Oregon counties, four had an over-the-year gain in the second quarter of 2011.
The gain was smallest in Lake (+0.2%) and Wasco (+0.8%), and larger in Sherman (+4.1%) and
Gilliam (+4.7%). Among the four counties with declining employment, losses were mild in
Hood River (-0.1%) and Klamath (-0.7%). Deschutes had moderate losses (-1.4%), along with
Wheeler (-2.3%). Two other Central Oregon counties remained significantly below the
employment level in second quarter 2010: Crook (-5.9%) and Jefferson (-4.0%).
Eight of 11 broad industries in Central Oregon dropped jobs over the year. Employment in
mining and logging dropped 470 from June 2010 to June 2011. The local industrys 11.5 percent
decline was the worst of any region in the state. Government dropped 580 jobs over the year,
with losses in nearly all Central Oregon counties.
Private educational and health services was the clear winner across the region, adding 625 jobs.
Deschutes produced over half of these jobs, contributing 380. Retail trade also posted gains,
growing 1.5 percent over the year.
At 11.5 percent in the second quarter of 2011, Central Oregons unemployment rate was the
second highest regional rate in the state. The rate dropped 1.4 percentage points from the second
quarter of 2010.
Eastern Oregon Growth Backtracks:
Baker, Grant, Harney, Malheur, Morrow, Umatilla, Union, and Wallowa counties
Job loss in Eastern Oregon during the recession was relatively moderate, but prolonged. The area
saw its first year-over-year losses in early 2008. Losses peaked above 3 percent in the first half
of 2009, when statewide losses were running above 5 percent. Losses were relatively mild in
2010, with slow growth resuming in the final quarter and into the first quarter of 2011. This trend
was reversed by the second quarter of 2011, when the region saw an over-the-year decline of 1.0
percent.
Umatilla was the only county that saw over-the-year gains in the second quarter (+0.7%). Losses
were mild in Morrow (-0.5%), and moderate in Union (-1.3%), Malheur (-1.4%), and Grant (2.0%). Declines were more significant in the three remaining counties: Wallowa (-5.1%), Harney
(-5.1%), and Baker (-3.9%).
Of 11 broad industries in Eastern Oregon, four gained jobs over the year. County-level trends
were mixed, but across the region the largest gains were in educational and health services (+120
jobs).

42

Construction in the region remained flat, matching the year-ago level, while manufacturing and
trade, transportation, and utilities each dropped 20 jobs. Government dropped 580 jobs across the
region.
Eastern Oregons unemployment rate in the second quarter of 2011 was 9.5 percent. The area
had the states smallest unemployment rate decrease over the year, dropping 0.8 percentage point
since the second quarter of 2010.

In June 2011, the six month percentage change in the Oregon Index of Leading Indicators 1 was
1.3 percent, following a revised 5.2 percent change the prior month. On a month-over-month
basis, five of the eleven indicators improved in June from their May levels, however on a six
month basis (which the overall Index is calculated based on six month changes) seven of the
eleven indicators are indicating growth. While the Index level has declined in recent months, the
six month growth rate remains positive, albeit at a lower rate.

The OILI applies the Conference Boards methodology for the U.S. National Leading Index to Oregon-specific components. The eleven
components incorporated in the OILI include: Semiconductor book-to-bill ratio, Oregon housing permits, Institute for Supply Managements
purchasing managers index, University of Michigan consumer sentiment index, Oregon withholding, new Oregon incorporations, Oregonian
help-wanted index, Portland International Airport air freight tonnage, Oregon trade-weighted dollar index, Industrial Production Index, and
initial Oregon unemployment claims.

While a number of the indicators do fluctuate up and down on

growth. Included in this category are Industrial Production, No Improvement
Oregon Dollar Index and Oregon Withholding. The second
category is for mostly sustained improvements with some OILI (OEA)
larger deviations around this trend. The only indicator in this Industrial Production
category is New Initial Unemployment Claims. Overall, claims Oregon Dollar Index

category is for indicators which showed sizable gains initially, Consumer Sentiment
however these indicators have now leveled off or declined Purchasing Mangers Index
slightly in recent months. Included in this category are Air Help Wanted Ads
Freight, Consumer Sentiment, Purchasing Managers Index and Housing Permits
Book-To-Bill ratio. Finally, the fourth category includes New Incorporations
indicators that have not shown any real improvement over the
past two years and these indicators continue to remain at low
levels. Include in this category are Help Wanted Ads, New Incorporations and Housing Permits.
The fact that the Index has slowed considerably in recent months does not necessarily bode well
for strong employment growth in Oregon in the near future. The slowdown in the Index can be
traced primarily to slightly slower growth in Industrial Production and then the indicators,
particularly Air Freight, in the third category above. In turn, the slowdown in the job growth the
State has seen recently is projected to continue through the end of year in our forecast.
Unfortunately, nothing in the Index or its individual components runs counter to this view.
Short-Term Outlook
Overview
We got through the soft patch in 2010 only to hit the headwinds of 2011. The first half growth
of real GDP in 2011 is only 0.8 percent. Personal income growth in June was only 0.1 percent
and consumer spending fell 0.2 percent, the first decline since September 2009. The ISM
Manufacturing Index fell to 50.9, slightly above its expansionary measure of 50.0 and the fourth
monthly decline in the past 5 months. All of this bodes poorly for a second half rebound for the
U.S. economy.
Some of the headwinds in the first half of this year may not be with us in the second half. The
Japan natural disaster should not be squeezing supply chains as the year progresses. The
European debt situation is still unclear with worries arising with Italy and Spain. High
commodity prices are starting to retreat which should help out household budgets.
One piece of good news for the U.S. economy was the July employment report. Unemployment
came down a notch to 9.1 percent and jobs increased by 117,000. But this report brings to
forefront another headwind that has not gotten the attention it deserves. While the private sector
44

added 154,000 jobs in July, the government sector shed 37,000 jobs. The Minnesota state
government shutdown is likely responsible for about 30,000 jobs in this number and is
temporary. Still, if we take out the entire Minnesota job losses for July, job losses still total over
518,000 since the summer of 2009, a decline of 2.3 percent. The bulk of these job losses are at
the state and local levels. The Center for Budget and Policy Priorities notes that the budget cuts
go beyond the layoffs with 44 states and the District of Columbia engaged in cost saving
measures from furlough days, lower worker benefits, cancelling of contracts with vendors,
reducing payments to businesses and nonprofits, and tax increases. All of these measures to some
degree slow down near term economic activity.
Oregon is similar impacted by the need to balance budgets. State and local governments received
federal stimulus funds during the recession and used budget reserves to avoid deeper cuts during
the recession. Now that these funds are no longer available and tax revenues have not recovered
to meet expenditures, budget tightening is leading to worker layoffs and other spending cuts.
Since the summer of 2009, the June 2011 total government employment in Oregon is down 2.2
percent, or around 6,600 less jobs. Although we do not believe this drop in jobs is enough to stop
the present recovery, with other headwinds impacting the state, the public sector pull back is
still an additional dampening impact on the economy. For a thorough look at the Oregon public
sector employment picture, see our blog at
http://oregoneconomicanalysis.wordpress.com/2011/07/20/more-on-public-sector-employment/
and associated listings.
Although the second quarter of 2011 reported weak but positive job growth, we are not
forecasting a recession for the Oregon economy. Risks of a downturn are heightened and we will
be watching indicators for any further signs of weakening. OEA (Office of Economic Analysis)
forecasts an increase of 0.5 percent in the third quarter of 2011 for total employment and 1.8
percent in the fourth quarter. Job gains continue to improve moving to nearly 2.0 percent in
2012. For the year average in 2011, total employment is projected to increase 1.7 percent and
rise to 1.95 percent in 2012.
Table O.2 compares OEAs forecast to other published forecasts. OEAs forecast for
employment follows the trends from the national forecasting firm IHS Global Insight and the
local forecasting group. While all forecasters see improvements in jobs for 2012, IHS Global
Insight has a more subdued increase while the local forecast group has a more robust outlook.

*Consensus forecast from Western Blue Chip forecast

Personal income growth improves in 2012 for OEA and the local forecasting group. IHS Global
insight has personal income growth less in 2012. We believe IHS Global Insight is taking into
account the temporary cut in social security taxes which raises 2011 personal income and thus
lowers the growth in 2012. OEA also take this into account but we believe underlying personal
income will be stronger than the view taken by IHS Global Insight. Thus, our 4.8 percent growth
in 2012 would have higher if not for the pull back given the temporary boost in growth rates for
2011.

Goods Producing Sectors


[References to specific businesses and organizations are from public news sources and from
compiled news items published in Around the State, Workforce Analysis Section, Oregon
Employment Department.]
The wood products industry is currently struggling, with only one job growth quarter out of the
past 20 quarters (5 years). The Random Lengths Composite Price (Random Lengths
Publications, June 2011) for lumber is $262 per thousand feet in June compared to $259 per
thousand feet in May. Prices seem to stabilizing but are down almost 14 percent from the start of
the year. Some of the price stabilization is related to an increase in softwood log exports. China
by far is the largest importer of US softwood logs, importing 130,147 million board feet in April
2011, a 322 percent year over year increase. These logs to China constitute 58 percent of all U.S.
softwood log exports. The more lucrative export market is causing some supply problems for
Oregon wood mills. Stimson Lumber Company reports the supply chain problem will reduce its
workforce by 45 to 50 near Forest Grove and 30 to 35 at its Tillamook mill. Other layoff news
involves 200 workers with Roseburg Forest Products at plants in Riddle, Dillard, and Coquille.
On the positive side, Hampton Affiliates will reopen the Warrenton mill to employ 100 workers.
This industry is projected to lose 4.5 percent of workers in 2011, and then add workers at 5.1
percent in 2012 and 7.8 percent in 2013. Although these seem like high growth rates in 2012 and
2013, employment is still 33.3 percent lower than jobs levels in 2006.
The computer and electronic product sector is slowing down from a blistering pace set in 2010.
The semiconductor equipment book-to-bill ratio was 0.94. This is the lowest measure in the past
four months, indicating that orders are growing slower than shipments. This bit of slowing fits
with the soft patch hitting the U.S. economy in the first half of this year. Semiconductor
equipment sales are slated to slow this year to growth of 12.1 percent. This is still relatively good
sales growth given the 148 percent growth in 2010. Projections for 2012 by the SEMI
(Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International) have a slight decrease of 1.2 percent.
Overall, sales are projected to stay at high levels through 2012. Hiring in this sector will likely be
dominated over time by the Intel expansions. Other news is mixed on the job front. SoloPower
will go ahead with a new facility in north Portland rather than Wilsonville, initially hiring 170
people with possible plans to reach 600 workers in five years. Datalogic in Eugene will move
production to Vietnam and lay off 125 workers over the next six months. ON Semiconductor
plans to add 30 workers and 25 contractors at its chip factory in Gresham. Flir Systems Inc. laid
off 40 workers at its Wilsonville offices. The computer and electronic product sector will add
jobs on an annual average basis in 2011 at the rate of 3.6 percent. Job growth continues through
2012 with growth rates of 3.3 percent and picks up to 3.9 percent in 2013.
The transportation equipment sector has been especially hard hit through this recession. RV
manufactures have either closed or operating at very low levels. Navistar International will lay
off 450 workers at its Monaco RV plant in Coburg. Not all is dire in this industry. Daimler
Trucks North America will hire 155 people at the end of the year to its Portland plant. Job
growth projections are 2.8 percent in 2011, -1.1 percent in 2012, and 6.5 percent in 2013. These
job growths are from very low levels, leaving employment in 2013 at 39.7 percent below 2006
job levels.

48

The metals and machinery sector had an exceptionally strong first half of 2011. Job gains are
projected at 6.3 percent for 2011. Job gains continue at a relatively slower pace with growth of
4.2 percent in 2012 and 2.5 percent in 2013.
Other durables sector has shown some job growth in the most recent quarters. This sector
includes makers of glass, concrete, cement, small electrical appliances, medical equipment, and
other small miscellaneous products. This sector will add jobs at a rate of 4.6 percent in 2011, 4.5
percent in 2012, and 2.5 percent in 2013.
Food processing is a very volatile job sector, but has generally been on the upswing even through
the recession. Truitt Brothers will move some operations out of Salem impacting eight full-time
and 250 seasonal workers. Turtle Island Foods is building a process plant in Hood River with
initial hiring of 60 workers next year. The food processing sector is expected to increase jobs by
4.3 percent in 2011. We believe that this is especially strong and related to difficulty in seasonal
factors in the first half of this year. Consequently, we are pulling back job growth in 2012 with a
decline of 5.1 percent. Job growth will be positive again with 0.9 percent growth in 2013.
Other nondurables, which include paper and allied products, will lose 3.7 percent jobs in 2011,
then, basically remain flat the next two years with gains of 0.9 percent jobs in 2012 and 0.3
percent jobs in 2013.
Although construction jobs were up 4.0 percent in the first half of the year, the second half will
not be as robust. Part of the reason for this is the building of the Intel D1X plant in Hillsboro.
Jobs ramped up the first half of this year and will stay up likely through 2012. But additional
workers will be a much slower pace going forward compared to the initial build up. Residential
building permits are down 15.4 percent for year-to-date June 2011 compared to the same period
last year. Single family units are even further down for the same period at 30.0 percent. Some of
this drop may be attributed to the wet spring this year, but even allowing for this, the numbers
are rather bleak. With the housing market still a ways to go to begin a recovery, the construction
outlook remains subdued. In the Portland area, Grubb and Ellis report that office and industry
markets were uneventful in the second quarter of this year, stabilizing after some improvements
in the second half of 2010. Jobs in this industry will grow 1.9 percent in 2011 but weaker growth
in 2012 at 0.9 percent. Improvements in residential and commercial real estate should help to
raise job growth to 3.2 percent in 2013.
Service Producing Sectors
Trade, transportation, and utilities sector is projected to increase jobs at a rate of 2.1 percent in
2011, with improving growth of 2.2 percent in 2012 and 2.0 percent in 2013. Retail is generally
adding jobs with some turnover. Wal-Mart will expand in southeast Portland adding 85 workers.
Zupans is opening in Lake Oswego with an estimated 100 people. Home Depot will open early
next year in Grants Pass employing 160 workers. Musicians Friend Inc. is closing its Medford
headquarters and cutting 160 jobs. Borders is closing stores throughout the state including
Beaverton, Gresham, Tigard, Corvallis, Eugene, Klamath Falls, Roseburg, and Salem. Retail
jobs are expected to increase 3.0 percent in 2011. Jobs will still grow in 2012 at 1.1 percent and
1.0 percent in 2013. Wholesale jobs are expected to slightly increase at 0.3 percent in 2011, and
then add jobs at a rate of 4.0 percent in 2012 and 2.6 percent in 2013.

49

The information sector, which includes traditional publishers such as newspapers and publishers
of software, had a strong first quarter but a very slight drop in jobs in the second quarter.
Tripwire sold to a private equity firm and laid off 50 employees. The Oregonian laid off 38
employees. Symantec software firm in Springfield plans to add 50 to 65 workers. The outlook
for this sector is growth of 2.7 percent in 2011, 2.9 percent in 2012, and 1.3 percent in 2013.
The financial sector will take some time to recover as the residential and commercial markets are
slow to recover. Recent news in the insurance segment of this sector was not encouraging.
StanCorp Financial Group in Portland will eliminate 130 positions. Nationwide Insurance in
Portland laid off 90 employees. The financial sector is projected to gain jobs at the rate of 1.1
percent in 2011, with stronger growth of 2.7 percent in 2012, and growth of 3.5 percent in 2013.
Although declining by over 2 percent in the second quarter, professional and business services
increased over 9 percent in the first quarter. This sector is expected to rebound in the second half
of the year for a yearly average job growth of 3.2 percent for 2011. Steady growth will continue
with 3.4 percent in 2012 and 3.9 percent in 2013.
Education and health services have only lost jobs during one quarter during the recession, the
first quarter of 2009. Relatively slow job growth ensued during 2010. Job growth has picked up
in 2011. This sector is projected to have job growth of 3.2 percent in 2011, 3.2 percent in 2012,
and 2.6 percent in 2013.
Leisure and hospitality had very strong first and second quarters, not characteristic of this sector.
This will boost up the yearly average but not likely to continue at the same pace. News articles
are filled with small restaurants opening around the state. Job growth is estimated to be 4.0
percent in 2011, 3.3 percent in 2012, and 1.7 percent in 2013.
The government sector will decline by 1.9 percent in 2011 and 1.3 percent in 2012, before
adding jobs at 0.6 percent in 2013. All levels of government are facing budget reductions. The
federal budget is under pressure from Congress to lower expenditures. There is no mood on
Capitol Hill for further stimulus funds to state and local governments. Local governments are
under great pressure to balance budgets by mainly cutting costs. News reports from around the
state are almost universal in the job layoffs, mainly in the area of local government education.
State government employment is forecasted to slightly increase by 0.6 percent in 2011, due to
increased enrollment at state institutions of higher education. But state jobs will drop by 1.1
percent in 2012 and essentially flat in 2013 with growth of 0.2 percent. Local government jobs
will fall by 2.0 percent in 2011 followed by further declines of 1.3 percent in 2012. Local
government job growth picks up slightly to 0.9 percent in 2013.
Population growth has slowed with the economy and is projected to be below the U.S. growth
rate in 2011 at 0.7 percent. Population growth picks up at 0.9 percent in 2012 and 1.0 percent in
2013, but still below rates seen in 2005 through 2007.
Personal Income Components
Personal income is forecast to grow by 4.4 percent in 2011, followed by growth of 4.6 percent in
2012, and 4.8 percent in 2013. The 2011 growth gets a boost from the slowly recovering
economy and the social security tax cut. This boost is somewhat dampened by the slower growth
50

in transfer payments as federal stimulus funds have faded. Growth in 2012 is very close to 2011
but due to a better economy outlook pushing it up while the sunset of the social security tax cut
is pushing it down. Economic growth continues to push up growth rates in 2013.
Wage and salary income will increase 3.7 percent in 2011. The slow job recovery keeps this
component at a slowly climbing rate. The job picture continues to improve and wage and salary
income will increase 5.3 percent in 2012. 2013 will see stronger growth with 5.4 percent gains.
The forecast of various personal income components is provided in Appendix A. Nonfarm
proprietors' income, which includes income of small businesses, has picked up in 2011 with an
expected growth rate of 4.7 percent. The growth rate in this income component will pick up a bit
with growth of 5.2 percent and slightly lower in 2013 at 4.4 percent. Transfer payments will slow
as the economy recovers and the temporary social security tax cut, as previously mentioned, with
push up personal income growth rates in 2011 and lower the growth for 2012.
Per capita income in Oregon will stay below the U.S. average throughout the forecast horizon.
Oregons economy is expected to grow faster than the U.S. economy starting in 2011 with job
growth outpacing the U.S. and personal income growth will be above starting in 2012. Oregons
per capita income will gain on the U.S. average through 2013 but then the stronger population
growth will take over and Oregons relative position will be little changed in 2020 compared to
2013.
Forecast Changes Relative to the May 2011 Forecast
Table O.4 provides a summary of forecast changes compared to the May 2011 forecast.
Personal income was lowered slightly more than one percent in 2011 due to a smaller drop in
contributions for social security than forecasted for the first quarter of 2011. Personal income for
2011-2014 (and outer years) has been lowered due to lower outlook of national personal income
and our near term lowering of economic outlook for Oregon. On a year-over-year percentage
change basis, the current forecast values for 2011 has been lowered from 5.7 percent to 4.4
percent, for 2012 it has been lowered from 5.0 percent to 4.6 percent and for 2013 it has also
been lowered from 4.9 percent to 4.8 percent. Real personal income was not lowered to the same
degree as nominal personal income after 2013 due to lower forecasts for inflation.
OEA also revised down employment numbers in each of the years 2011-2020, by amounts
between 0.5 and 1.5 percents. This was due to the lower near term economic outlook, lower job
counts for the second quarter of 2010 and a lower national employment forecast.
Housing starts were better in the first half of this year than forecasted. This raised the outlook for
2011. Building permits for the first half of this year are still weak. Along with a slightly weaker
economic outlook, housing starts were lowered throughout the forecast horizon.
The construction outlook is raised for 2011. Higher estimated second quarter job counts relative
to forecast and no change in the national outlook for 2011. Construction jobs outlook is lowered
for 2012 through 2014, then a slight revision downwards for 2015 through 2020. The job levels
in construction rise on a yearly average starting with 2011 and are still below the peak levels in
2007 through the end of the forecast horizon (2020).
51

The manufacturing outlook is raised in 2011 and lowered ever so slightly in the outer years. The
upward revision reflects the higher second quarter 2011 numbers across both durable and
nondurable goods sectors.
Private nonmanufacturing is lowered slightly for 2011-2020. The downward revisions are mostly
due to lower information and professional and business services in the second quarter. From
2013 and out, there is a level shift to reflect the slow near term recovery.
The government sector employment is relatively unchanged with minimal lowering of the
forecast. The forecast level is maintained to reflect the lagged effect of the recession on public
sector budgets compared to the private sector.

Alternative Scenarios
The baseline forecast is our projection of the most likely outcome for the Oregon economy. As
with any forecast, however, other scenarios are possible, especially given the current national
and international macroeconomic outlook, in which risks are heightened considerably and
concentrated more so on the downside. The Optimistic scenario is one in which the recover
gathers steam and employment and income growth accelerate through the end of the year. The
Pessimistic scenario is one in which the U.S. (and Oregon) falls back into recession with
declining consumer spending and job losses. These scenarios are not error band calculations
around the baseline forecast, as the scenarios are modeled on realistic assumptions of economic
growth, albeit either stronger or weaker than the baseline forecast.
Optimistic Scenario: The recovery gathers steam and pulls the economy out of recession and into
a stronger cyclical expansion. Economic growth is above potential for the rest of 2011 and all of
2012, resulting in stronger job and income gains. The temporary factors blamed for the
slowdown in early 2011 do prove temporary as any supply chain issues resulting from the
Japanese earthquake subside and commodity prices remain at current, lower levels, which further
strengthen consumption, particularly for durable goods purchases such as automobile sales. The
turbulence and volatility of equity markets in early August prove transitory and markets rebound
strongly to finish the year with positive gains.
In Oregon, job gains are broad based with strong growth in all private sector industries. Public
sector employment still contracts in the near term given the fixed budget outlook, however losses
are smaller than in the baseline as improving tax revenues prevent the most severe cutbacks. The
unemployment rate declines faster than the under the baseline scenario, because individuals are
able to find employment more readily as income growth accelerates. The increase in employment
and income support a self-sustaining economic expansion in which new income fuels increased
consumer spending (and debt reduction) which begets further increases in employment. Such an
expansion increases housing demand as newly employed households (and increasing income for
existing households) find their own homes after doubling-up with family and friends during the
recession. This results in working down the existing inventory overhang more quickly and new
construction returns to normal levels by early 2015.
Pessimistic Scenario: The true double dip recession. The U.S. economy, after growing at less
than 1.0 percent in the first half of 2011, stalls and falls back into recession. The normal drivers
of economic expansion - consumer spending and new residential construction falter in the near
55

term, pulling the overall economy down with them. The equity market volatility and high
gasoline prices cause consumers to retrench further, sending household spending to a screeching
halt which results in falling sales and rising inventories. Given this outcome, businesses decide to
cut expenses, with labor costs being one of the largest and most readily available expenses to cut.
The vicious recessionary cycle of falling demand leading to layoffs renews.
Just like the nation, in Oregon employment declines, unemployment rises, small business income
falls and total personal income plateaus on a nominal basis, however if unemployment insurance
benefits are not extended beyond the 26 week regular program, personal income in the state
would decline outright. The magnitude of the recession would be fairly mild by historical
standards; however it certainly will not go unnoticed, especially given the precariously
underwhelming expansion to date. Employment would decline 2.3 percent which is slightly
larger than the 1990 recession in Oregon and approximately half the depth of the 2001 recession
in the state. However, this employment decline would erase all the job gains the state has seen in
the past eighteen months, leaving the state with the same level of total nonfarm employment first
reached in the fall of 1999, which would be a time span of nearly 13 years. The unemployment
rate rises above 10 percent and remains there for two additional years, until the fall of 2013. The
unemployment rate does not fall below 8 percent until late 2017, which would mark nine full
years above that level.
Furthermore, the housing market would take longer to recover. Home prices decline another 11
percent, while new home constructions rebound is delayed another year, resulting in further
sluggish growth in the near term. On the bright side, when construction does rebound, it will
result in a surge of new home building that will rise above the states long term average level of
building due to pent-up demand for housing and the fact that the state will have under built
housing during this time period.
Table O.5 details both the quarterly and annual outlook for select Oregon economic variables
under the two alternative scenarios. Graph O.3 illustrates these near-term scenarios for each of
the variables.

Forecast Risks
At the very least, the supply chain disruptions from the natural disaster is Japan are fading away.
High commodity prices are retreating though the price of gold dances to different tune. Thats
about it for relief from the headwinds hitting the US and Oregon economies. Congress managed
to cripple together an agreement to raise the debt ceiling only to have S&P downgrade US
Treasury securities and the Dow drops almost 11 percent in 5 days (August 2 8). The risk of
another recession is heightened and the resiliency of the US economy will be tested.

58

Oregon faces these same headwinds and though our recovery is stronger than the US, it is still
relatively weak and fragile. Our wood products industry will continue to struggle as the housing
market will be slow to recover. Exports have been strong but worries of world financial problems
could slow them down. State and local governments will likely cut more budgets lowering
services and workers.
The color of our outlook has turned more a shade of yellow and less green.
We will continue to monitor and recognize the potential impacts of risk factors on the Oregon
economy. We have identified the major risks now facing the Oregon economy in the list below:

Contagion of the credit crunch and financial market instability. As more time passes, this
downside risk becomes less likely to occur. Credit markets are easing, but consumers and
businesses still have difficulty getting loans. To the extent that credit markets take longer to
come back to some sort of state of normalcy, the current recovery could be slower than
projected or thrown off track. Housing and commercial real estate may take longer for
credit conditions to improve. Oregon will suffer the consequences along with the rest of the
nation.

Prolonged housing market instability. Signs are starting to emerge that the housing
market has hit bottom, at least in terms of housing starts, but prices may have further to
fall. Foreclosures and delinquency rates are still relatively high. Oregon, with the rest of
the nation, will still see corrections to the housing market in 2011. The question is
whether the job growth will kick in to alleviate the downward pressures from declining
housing prices and oversupply of homes. The housing market appears to be the biggest
threat to a sustained economic recovery in Oregon.

Commodity price inflation. With world economies starting to recover and emerging
markets still strong, the stage is set for higher commodity prices. Food prices are near their
2008 highs. Oil prices have recently topped $100 a barrel; however WTI is now slightly
lower. Industrial metals are also on the rise. This could be a repeat of commodity price
spikes that took place in 2007-2008. The risk is how disruptive this will be on businesses
and whether the commodity price inflation will lead to general inflation. With a weak
recovery that needs to build strength, the commodity inflation could throw this off track.
Then again, if this is only a change in relative prices and wage costs do not accelerate, this
commodity inflation could be short lived.

Loss of federal timber payments to Oregon counties. President Obama included a reduced
federal timber payment package in the 2012 federal budget. The amount has been reduced
by 10 percent and reduces by 20 percent over five years. Questions remain as to whether
this item will survive further budget changes from Congress. If the federal timber payments
do not survive, the last payments to counties will be this October. While this temporary
reinstatement helps cover short term budgets for Oregon counties, finding or replacing this
dwindling revenue source will be imperative as any loss of public services could have
adverse impacts on economic activity.

Global Spillovers Both Up and Down. The international list of risks seems to change by the
day: sovereign debt problems in Europe, equity and property bubbles in places like South
59

America and Asia, political unrest in the Middle East, and commodity price spikes and
inflationary pressures in emerging markets. The natural disaster in Japan has caused slight
supply chain disruptions to Oregon firms but the coming reconstruction phase may bring
new business. Also internationally we have economies recovering, incomes rising, and
demand for U.S. and Oregon exports are rising. Whether the downside risks will dissipate
and the recoveries take hold will influence the direction of strength of U.S. and Oregon
economic recoveries. With China now the top destination for Oregon exports, the state of
the Chinese economy has spillover effects to the Oregon economy.

State and Local Governments. The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities finds that 44
states and the District of Columbia are projecting budget shortfalls totaling $125 billion for
fiscal year 2012 which generally starts this summer. Local government budget shortfalls
add to this total. Oregon is among the states facing a budget shortfall. Given that further
tax increases are unlikely in Oregon, balancing budgets will mainly be through spending
cuts. In a mixed private-public economy, this will be a drag on the economic recovery. The
question is whether the building strength of the private sector will be enough to continue
the recovery through the state and local government budget crises.

Undoing the Federal Policy Used to Combat the Financial Crisis and Recession.
Bailouts, tax cuts, monetary quantitative easing, and other fiscal packages most likely
prevented a more serious economic downturn. But the clean-up after the storm can have its
own risks to the economy. Exit strategies will have to be carefully implemented to prevent
premature tightening and choking off the recovery or acting too late to avoid an inflationary
environment. All states, including Oregon, face the same risks.

Initiatives, referendums, and referrals. Generally, the ballot box brings a number of
unknowns that could have sweeping impacts on the Oregon economy.

Extended Outlook
The Oregon economy grew slower than the U.S. economy from 1998 through 2003. This had not
occurred since 1985. It outpaced the nation in growth in 2004 through 2007. Between 2011 and
2017, employment growth in Oregon will be slower than in the mid-1990s. However, the U.S.
economy is expected to have even slower growth than that expected in Oregon after 2011. IHS
Global Insight projects Oregons Gross State Product to have the second highest growth rate in
the nation over the coming years.
The slower economic growth of 1998 through 2003 and 2008 through 2011 also slowed the
growth of Oregons per capita income and average wages. The devastating 1980-82 recession
slowed the growth of incomes and wages until 1986. In the 1990s, as the Oregon economy
became more industrially diversified, per capita income and wages grew faster than the nations
as a whole. But the expansion period of 2004 to 2007 did not increase our per capita income
compared to the nation, and now this relative measure is at a historic low. Going forward, the
Oregon economy is projected to grow faster than the nations. However, with population growth
projected to be higher in Oregon, very little progress on raising per capita income compared to
the U.S. is projected out to 2020.

60

The Oregon Employment Department has published a detailed look at Oregons per capita
personal income entitled Why Oregon Trails the Nation; it can be found at:
http://olmis.emp.state.or.us/olmisj/PubReader?itemid=00007366
The key factors that will fuel the states long-term growth are listed below:

Steady in-migration and population growth: High population growth is an opportunity for
economic growth as the state creates jobs to serve a growing population. At the same
time, it presents a challenge for the state as the demand for services increases.

Export growth and high commodity prices: Global economic expansion will increase
demand for Oregon commodities, both finished and capital goods. Oregon is well
positioned for trade with countries in the Pacific Rim. High commodity prices will
benefit agricultural and timber producers in the state.

Returning high energy price: Recently, stronger demand and possibly speculation for oil
has caused the gas price to spike. The long-term growth of the developing world could
cause demand to create more lasting upward price pressures. We have already seen how
high energy prices can slow consumer spending and raise business costs.

Continued strength in domestic markets: Continued economic growth in California and


other major domestic markets will fuel demand for Oregon products.

Business costs advantages: The Oregon economy will benefit from a comprehensive
energy plan. Efforts which have long been in place for electricity planning should extend
to all energy sources. If the plan can assure businesses of an abundant, reliable, and
relatively inexpensive supply of electricity and other sources of energy, the state (and the
Pacific Northwest) will continue to have a relative energy cost advantage over other
regions. Oregon has other business cost advantages, such as lower workers
compensation rates and multi-modal transportation options compared to other states.
Equally important is an educated work force that contributes to productivity.

Environmental issues: Salmon protection measures, the Portland Super Fund, and other
issues could change the economic landscape.

Affordable housing: For most of the late 1990s and the early part of this decade,
California, Washington, and the nation as a whole have experienced more rapidly rising
housing costs than Oregon. The housing boom once again raised California prices above
Oregons house prices, and Washington kept pace with Oregon. This relative advantage
in housing cost is narrowing as prices in California fall faster than in Oregon, with
Washington once again keeping pace with Oregon. If housing costs rise faster in Oregon
than in the rest of the nation, companies will face increased difficulties recruiting
workers. If Oregon can maintain a relative cost advantage in housing, this factor will be
attractive for firm location.

Biotechnology and Clean Technology: These sectors are seen by many as the next growth
industries. Portland and the state have launched funding plans to promote the
biotechnology sector. The platform for the Oregon Business Plan includes
61

nanotechnology as an emerging field for Oregon. It is too early to tell if these are indeed
the next growth industries and what returns they may bring.

Renewable Energy and Sustainable development: Centered in the Portland area, this
movement in sustainable building practices is spreading throughout the U.S. Uncertainty
surrounds the number of new jobs associated with this movement, but it may allow gains
in market shares for construction and consulting firms in Oregon. Renewable energy such
as solar and wind mills are increasingly looking to Oregon as a place to locate.

Quality of life: Oregon will continue to attract financially secure retirees. Companies that
place a high premium on quality of life will also want to locate in Oregon.

REVENUE FORECAST

Summary
The outlook for revenue growth in Oregon is threatened by the uncertainty surrounding the
nascent recovery in the regional job market. Given how fragile consumer and business
confidence have become, downside risks to the forecast have clearly intensified in recent weeks.
Through a lack of confidence, the troubles in Europe, Washington D.C., and on Wall Street may
well infect the local economy going forward. That said, all of Oregons core measures of
economic activity (private employment, earnings and tax collections) are still expanding--albeit
at disappointing rates. In particular, until we see private employers cutting jobs, it is difficult to
argue that Oregons economic expansion has ended.
Although the turmoil in financial markets is not expected to derail Oregons economic recovery,
it will nevertheless create additional headwinds for growth. Most notably, wealth losses suffered
in stock markets can be expected to put downward pressure on household spending, and will
result in fewer tax collections tied to realizations of capital gains.
Despite these challenges, the baseline (most likely) forecast has not been revised downward
drastically at this time. However, the risks to the outlook are clearly skewed to the downside.
There is around a one in three chance that the U.S. economy will slip back into recession, which
would certainly drag Oregons regional economy down with it. In such a scenario, the forecast
for tax revenues would fall drastically.
After the smoke clears, revenue growth in Oregon and other states will face considerable
downward pressure over the 10-year extended forecast horizon. As the baby boom population
cohort works less and spends less, traditional state tax instruments such as personal income taxes
and general sales taxes will become less effective, and revenue growth will fail to match the pace
seen during recent periods of economic expansion.
A.

2011-13 General Fund Revenues

Led by personal income tax collections, general fund revenues are posting large gains entering
the 2011-13 biennium. Temporary factors will help support healthy growth in personal income
tax collections in the near term, but growth in collections will lose a steam in the second half of
the biennium. Corporate tax collections are now falling rapidly, with the boom in underlying
corporate profits having come to an end.
Due in roughly equal parts to losses to labor earnings and to investment forms of income, the
outlook for the 2011-13 biennium is somewhat weaker than what was predicted in the May 2011
forecast. The forecast for General Fund revenues for 2011-13 is now $13,816 million. This
represents a decrease of $62.0 million (-0.4%) from the May 2011 forecast. Excluding policy
changes and fund transfers, general fund revenues are expected to be $192.6 million (-1.4%)
lower than in May.

Personal Income Tax


Personal income tax collections were $1,770 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011,
$22.3 million (1.3%) above the latest forecast. Compared to the year-ago level, total personal
income tax collections were up 16.7% relative to a forecast of 15.2% growth. Table B.8 in
Appendix B presents a comparison of actual and projected personal income tax revenues for the
fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011.
The forecast for total personal income tax receipts during the current biennium was reduced by
$167 million from the May forecast. This revision can be traced to weaker expectations for
growth in taxable labor income and a wide range of investment income. Due to the recent decline
in stock market wealth and interest rates, the outlook has deteriorated for taxable capital gains,
retirement income, investment income and dividends.
Corporate Income Tax
Corporate income taxes equaled $175 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, $19.9
million below the May forecast. Quarterly corporate receipts were 4.4% higher than figures from
a year ago. Given the overestimate of corporate income taxes, no kicker payment will be
generated for the 2009-11 biennium. Table B.8 in Appendix B presents a comparison of actual
and projected corporate income tax revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011.
Corporate profits, and associated tax collections, are cooling off rapidly after reaching record
highs. Profits and corporate tax collections are notoriously volatile, with collections often cut in
half in the year immediately following profit booms. The expectation for a sharp correction in
corporate income tax collections over the coming year was built into the May forecast. As a
result, the September outlook was revised downward only modestly ($18.7 million) due to a
downgraded outlook for sales. When legislative actions are included, corporate tax collections
are expected to be $12.2 million higher than what was reflected in the May outlook.
68

Non-income Tax Sources of Revenue


All other revenues will total $929 million for the biennium, an increase of $93 million (11.1%)
from the prior forecast. The improved outlook for non-income tax sources of general fund
revenue can be traced to legislative actions. Excluding legislative actions, the forecast for other
revenues has been reduced by $15.4 million (1.8%) lower than expected collections of
inheritance taxes. Although collections of inheritance taxes are not closely tied to
contemporaneous economic activity, falling asset prices and federal tax law changes contributed
to the low revenues.

General Fund revenues will total $15,932 million in 2013-15, an increase of 15.1% percent from
the prior period, and $206 million (1.3%) below the May forecast. In 2015-17, revenue growth
will moderate to 11.6%, followed by 12.0% growth in 2017-19 and slower rates of around 10%
to in subsequent biennia. The slowdown in long-run revenue growth is largely due to the impact
of demographic changes. Revenues in 2015-17 and beyond are expected to be smaller than in the
May forecast, largely due to the downgraded outlook for job growth. Table B.2 in Appendix
presents a more detailed look at the long-term General Fund revenue forecast
C.

Tax Law Assumptions

The revenue forecast is based on existing law, including actions signed into law during the 2011
Oregon Legislative Session. OEA makes routine adjustments to the forecast to account for
legislative and other actions not factored into the personal and corporate income tax models.
These adjustments can include expected kicker refunds, when applicable, as well as any tax law

69

changes not yet present in the historical data. A summary of actions taken during the 2011
Legislative Session can be found in Appendix B Table B.3.
Although based on current law, many of the tax policies that impact the revenue forecast are not
set in stone. In particular, sunset dates for many large tax credits have been scheduled. As credits
are allowed to disappear, considerable support is lent to the revenue outlook in the outer years of
the forecast. To the extent that tax credits are extended and not allowed to expire when their
sunset dates arrive, the outlook for revenue growth will be reduced.
D.

Forecast Risks

The latest revenue forecast for the current biennium represents the most probable outcome given
available information. OEA feels that it is important that anyone using this forecast for decisionmaking purposes recognize the potential for actual revenues to depart significantly from this
projection.
Currently, the overwhelming risk facing the revenue outlook is the threat that the U.S. economy
will slip back into recession in the near term. Such a scenario, however it played out, would
result in drastic revenue losses.
OEAs current thinking is that a near-term recession would look relatively mild relative to the
last two business cycles. Households and firms have already buckled down considerably, with
few identifiable imbalances similar to the stock market and housing bubbles that were corrected
by the last two cycles. In the recessionary scenario presented here, it is assumed that Oregon will
give back all of the jobs it has gained since the end of 2009.
Should a recession of this nature ensue, FY2011-13 biennial income tax revenues would be
reduced on the order $800 million, and FY2013-15 biennial revenues would be reduced by
around $1.1 billion.

Lottery Earnings Forecast

Table R.3 presents a summary of lottery earnings and distribution for the 2011-13 biennium.
Projected lottery earnings will total $1,121.7 million, a decrease of $6.6 million from the prior
forecast. Overall lackluster collections stem from video lottery sales, which dominate overall
lottery earnings. Although growth has been relatively slow, lottery revenues have stabilized and
returned to continued growth the past year, across nearly all games. Revenue fell sharply in the
wake of the recession and enactment of the smoking ban. Including the beginning balance and
other earnings, total available resources equal $1,124.4 million. After adjusting for programs that
receive a strict percentage of lottery transfers and incorporating changes to distributions made
during the 2011 session, the current forecast for the ending balance is $23.1 million.
The extended outlook for lottery earnings can be found in Table B.9 in Appendix B. It is critical
to note that the earnings reflected in Table B.9 include a transfer rate pertaining to video lottery
of 65.1 percent as opposed to the 62.4 percent rate. The Lottery has applied this transfer rate on
sales since July 1, 2009.
Over the extended forecast horizon, video lottery sales are expected to grow at rates similar to
overall consumer spending. This has not been the case in past years, with gains in video lottery
having outstripped spending on other items throughout their history. Eventually as video games
lose some of their novelty, sales growth will slow to more sustainable levels.

Overview of Budgetary Reserves

The state currently administers two general reserve accounts, the Oregon Rainy Day Fund
(ORDF) and the Education Stability Fund (ESF). This section updates balances and recalculates
the outlook for these funds based on the September revenue forecast.
Oregon Rainy Day Fund and Education Stability Fund
Established by the 2007 Legislature, the ORDF is funded from ending balances each biennium,
up to one percent of appropriations. The Legislature can deposit additional funds, as it did in first
populating the ORDF with surplus corporate income tax revenues from the 2005-07 biennium.
The ORDF also retains interest earnings. Withdrawals from the ORDF require one of three
triggers, including a decline in employment, a projected budgetary shortfall, or declaration of a
state of emergency, plus a three-fifths vote. Withdrawals are capped at two-thirds of the balance
as of the beginning of the biennium in question. Fund balances are capped at 7.5 percent of
General Fund revenues in the prior biennium.
The ESF gained its current reserve structure and mechanics via constitutional amendment in
2002. The ESF receives 18 percent of lottery earnings 2, deposited on a quarterly basis. The ESF
does not retain interest earnings. The ESF has similar triggers as the ORDF (in fact, the ORDF
was modeled on the ESF), but does not have the two-thirds cap on withdrawals. The ESF balance
is capped at five percent of General Fund revenues collected in the prior biennium.
Budgetary Reserve Outlook
Table R.4 presents projected balances for the ORDF and ESF. Under current law, $200 million
will have been transferred to the State School Fund during 2009-11 from the States two reserve
funds. The ORDF ended the 2009-11 BN with a balance of $10.4 million. The final 2009-11
General Fund ending balance was $35.2 million and was transferred to the ORDF at the
beginning of the 2011-13 biennium.
The ESF balance was nearly completely withdrawn at the end of 2009-11, leaving an ending
balance of $5.1 million. During 2011-13, projected deposits total $192.4 million, while
scheduled withdrawals total $182.8 million. Given these projections, by the end of 2011-13, the
ESF will total $15.2 million. Table B.10 in Appendix B provides detailed information for
Oregons budgetary reserves.

Five percent of these transfers are deposited to the Oregon Growth sub-account. Due to the illiquid nature
of this sub-account, only funds in the main account are included in the figures presented here.

September 2011 Forecast Addendum Close of Session Forecast

The 2011 Close of Session forecast consists of the May 2011 forecast, adjusted for revenuerelated actions taken during the 2011 Legislative Session and subsequently signed into law by
the Governor. The 2011 COS forecast provides the revenue context on which the 2011-13
legislatively adopted budget is based, as well as the baseline for corporate and personal kicker
threshold calculations.
Table 1 compares the May 2011 and Close of Session forecasts. General Fund revenues equal
$14,032.0 million which equals the $13,901.4 million from the May forecast, plus $130.6 million
in additional revenues resulting from actions taken during the 2011 legislative session. Table 2
compares the forecasts by year and revenue source. A detailed listing of the impact of individual
legislative actions appears in Table 3. While there were numerous changes, many are relatively
small in terms of overall revenue and/or designed to offset one another.
There are two potential kicker rebates: one for corporate income tax; and one for all other
General Fund revenues (primarily personal income tax). Kicker rebates can be triggered if actual
revenue collections for the 2011-13 biennium exceed the COS forecast by two percent or more.
Two percent for the corporate kicker is $17.9 million, for a kicker threshold of $912.1 million.
The personal kicker includes personal income tax and other revenues, which total $13,137.4
million. Two percent of that is $262.8 million, for a personal kicker threshold of $13,400.5
million.

OREGON'S POPULATION FORECASTS BY AGE AND SEX


Procedure and Assumptions
Population forecasts by age and sex are developed using the cohort-component projection
procedure. The population by single year of age and sex is projected based on the specific
assumptions of vital events and migrations. Oregons population from the most recent decennial
census is the base for the forecast. To explain the cohort-component projection procedure very
briefly, the forecasting model "survives" the initial population distribution by age and sex to the
next age-sex category in the following year, and then applies age-sex-specific birth and
migration rates to the mid-year population. Further iterations subject the in-and-out migrants to
the same population.
Populations by age-sex detail for the years 2000 through 2009, called intercensal estimates, in
the following tables are developed by OEA based on 2010 Census and Intercensal totals from the
Population Research Center, Portland State University. The numbers of births and deaths through
2009-10 are from Oregon's Center for Health Statistics. The total populations for the period
2011 to 2020 are generated as part of the economic and revenue forecast of OEA.
Annual numbers of births are determined based on the age-specific fertility rates projected based
on Oregon's past trends and past and projected national trends. Oregon's total fertility rate is
assumed to remain below the replacement level of 2.1 children per woman during the forecast
period, tracking at slightly lower than the national rate.
Life Table survival rates are developed for the year 2000. Male and female life expectancies for
the 2000-2020 period are projected based on the past three decades of trends and national
projected life expectancies. Gradual improvements in life expectancies are expected over the
forecast period. At the same time, the difference between the male and female life expectancies
will continue to shrink. The male life expectancy of 75.7 and the female life expectancy of 80.2
in 2000 are projected to improve to 79.6 years for males and 83.8 years for females by the year
2020.
Estimates and forecasts of the number of net migrations are based on the residuals from the
difference between population change and natural increase (births minus deaths) in a given
forecast period. The migration forecasting model uses Oregons employment, unemployment
rates and income/wage data from Oregon and other states. Distribution of migrants by age and
sex is based on detailed data from the American Community Survey. The annual net migration
between 2010 and 2020 is expected to remain in the range of 9,800 to 35,200, averaging 27,300
persons annually. Slowdown in Oregons economy in the recent years resulted in smaller net
migration and slow population growth. Population growth and net migration rates in 2010 were
the lowest in over two decades. This slow population growth, as a result of slow economy and
high unemployment rate, is expected to continue in the near future. Migration is intrinsically
related to economy and employment situation of the state. Still, current high unemployment and
job loss have impacted net migration and population growth, but not to the extent in the early
1980s. Main reason for this is the fact that other states of potential destination for Oregon outmigrants are not faring any better either. Hence the potential out-migrants have very limited
destination choices.
