The latest Standard & Poor’s/Case-Schiller house price index shows the biggest year-on-year decline in real estate prices for 21 years.

Two charts took my eye this morning - the first what is happening to house prices and secondly the Conference Board data on consumer confidence shown by age of respondents.
