Emeritus, however has been quite successful navigating the macro economic environment in which it operates. First is has diversification in regards to location. Currently Emeritus operates 492 locations in 42 states across the nation. This may pose problems in the short run macroeconomic sense as each state has its own healthcare regulations....

The president also promised to work with other relevant sectors to assist homeowners in refinancing their mortgages at low interest rates. On the other hand, Republicans are worried about proposals that would repeat the 2009 stimulus plan despite of President Obama's call for bipartisan support to the bill.
