Utah's Marketplace: Only good news.

According to the National Association of Realtors, the Utah state government and business community have propelled Utah onto the world economic stage. As a result, Utah’s exports tripled between 2005 and 2012 to $16.1 billion and the state grabbed a nice share of foreign direct investment flowing into the U.S. For four years running (2010–2013), Forbes has crowned Utah the best state in the nation for business.
