ntegrated Asset Services, LLC (IAS) (iasreo.com), a leader in default management and residential collateral valuation, released its IAS360™ House Price Index for December on Tuesday, Feb.10. The IAS360 is released a full three weeks before Case Shiller's. Based on the timeliest and most granular data available in the industry, the index showed a 13.8% decline in house prices for the full year 2008 and an overall decline of 19.1% since the market’s peak at the end of 2006. This after December 2008 posted continued declines of 1.1%.

The IAS report also identified 10 of the counties hit hardest during the national decline. Not surprisingly, most were in states that experienced the largest gains during the housing bubble, California and Florida in particular. California fared the worst with three of the nation’s hardest hit counties: San Joaquin County, down 51% from its high, Monterey County, down 49%, and Kern County, down 45%.

“We’re seeing house prices returning to pre-bubble levels and there are no signs of leveling off just yet,” said Dave McCarthy, President and CEO of Integrated Asset Services. “But location is still everything, and in this turbulent market the ability of the IAS360 House Price Index to gauge movement at the neighborhood level will make it the most vital house price index to watch for signs of a recovery.”

Integrated Asset Services (IAS), a leader in default management and residential collateral valuation, just launched its monthly-reported IAS360 House Price Index www.iasreo.com/ias360....

The new Index represents the industry’s first clear representation of U.S. housing market trends at a county level. IAS360 House Price Index is a comprehensive housing index tracking monthly change in the median sales price of detached single-family residences in more than 15,000 “neighborhoods” across the U.S. This data is then rolled up to report on the changes in 360 counties, nine census divisions, four regions, and the nation overall. The timeliness of the data, which is based on all arms-length transactions occurring in underlying neighborhoods, makes the IAS360 the leading indicator for housing price trends in the U.S. April Index: www.iasreo.com/ias3600...

Trian Fund Prepared To Offer $37-$41 For Wendy's http://seekingalpha.com/article/43083-trian-fund-prepared-to-offer-37-41-for-wendy-s?source=feed#comment-154915 154915
Peltz has a pretty poor record on corporate governance. During his proxy fight with Heinz back in 2006, the company responded to his calls for change with this: "Triarc received a corporate governance rating of 21.5, exceeding only 21.5% of all companies in the S&P SmallCap 600 and ranking it in the bottom quartile. Separately, Corporate Library gave Triarc an 'F' on overall board effectiveness -- the lowest possible rating." Zac Bissonnette, Blogging Stocks.

It’s time for the Special Committee to conclude this process. Keeping the company and its management team in limbo and at the mercy of Peltz and his minions for a year hasn’t been in anyone’s best interest, especially the shareholders. This management team knows it must deliver better results but they’re hamstrung to move forward until this special committee makes a decision. Wendy’s has made some important strides but they need the special committee process to conclude so that they can move forward.
