Excerpt:
S&P/Case-Shiller released the monthly Home Price Indices for April ("April" is a 3-month average of February, March and April closing prices). April closing prices include some contracts signed in December, so there is a significant lag to this data. Here is a graph of the month-over-month (MoM) change in the Case-Shiller National Index Seasonally Adjusted (SA).
The MoM increase in the seasonally adjusted (SA) Case-Shiller National Index was at 0.26%. This was the fifteenth consecutive MoM increase, but this tied December as the smallest MoM increase in the last 14 month.
On a seasonally adjusted basis, prices increased month-to-month in 16 of the 20 Case-Shiller cities. Seasonally adjusted, San Francisco has fallen 7.8% from the recent peak, Seattle is down 6.0% from the peak, Portland down 3.7%, and Phoenix is down 3.7%.
