Lawrence area construction slows amid rising costs and limited lots
Lawrence saw 78 million in building permits in 2005, down about 40 million from 2004, the lowest since 1992. Landplan Engineering CEO Phil Struble warned 2006 may not rebound as northwest sewer capacity tightens and interest rates rise. 300 to 450 lots could open for new homes, far below 2003 levels, signaling broader economic impact.

Airlines roll out winter fare sales but bargains scarce
Airlines have launched post holiday fare sales as demand slows toward spring. Major carriers American ATA AirTran Frontier and United have begun discounts though analysts say the savings are not as deep as last year. Rising fuel costs kept overall fares about $40 higher year over year and Independence Air’s bankruptcy cites disrupted pricing as its exit reshaped the market. Analysts suggest checking multiple carriers and that hotel or rental car deals may yield larger savings than flights.

Short-term bonds and CDs gain appeal in inverted yield curve
Jeff Brown explains that an inverted yield curve, with short-term rates higher than long-term ones, changes saver strategies. He notes Fed-driven short rates, scarce long-term demand, and the appeal of Treasuries for safety. For small investors, hold to maturity in short-term securities while keeping stocks for long-term retirement.
