Housing

Sales of existing U.S. homes jumped 12.3% in December over November's levels, the National Association of Realtors said. December's existing-home sales rose to a seasonally-adjusted annualized rate of 5.28 million.
This provides an encouraging end to the worst year since 1997, as the collapse in house prices and a wave of foreclosures depressed activity over the 12-month period.
