The Gulf Coast Business Council Research Foundation is pleased to announce the release of the Regional Brief for the fourth quarter 2009.
The economy on the Mississippi Gulf Coast advanced in the fourth quarter 2009 when referencing results from economic indicators such as sales tax diversions and home sales, while employment levels worsened slightly at the end of the year. Weighing these results with other indicators, such as the CEO & Business Owner Survey that was administered at the end of the quarter, and anecdotal information, shows slight progress was made within the overall economy of the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
