AEI Housing Center Reports Surprising Surge, State-by-State Post-COVID19 Housing Data, Jimmy Lai-China-Hong Kong Storm, plus Manufactured Home Investing, Stock Updates

DowJones5.26.2020ManufacturedHomeStockUpdatesBroaderMarketSnapshotDear Mr. President, We now need both your public support and the diplomatic efforts of the United States to help keep our city a center of international trade and home for freedom. Mr. President, please help us. A real HongKonger.”

That tweet is found on the Apple Daily Twitter feed. Per their page, “Apple Daily is the largest news media group in #HongKong with live streaming, breaking news and animated news.”

 

Manufactured housing has numerous suppliers in China. Some of those business contacts with mainland China, per sources, have at various times work through Hong Kong.

 

 

The interview above mentions one of the tweets below, which MHProNews has compiled to help shed light on the plight of that city’s struggle for keeping their freedom. On the Global Times twitter feed, #Breaking: Jimmy Lai Chee-ying, founder of #AppleDaily in #HK, was detained by the #Hongkong police again Saturday morning: HongKong media,” on April 17, 2020. Per Wikipedia,The Global Times is a daily tabloid newspaper under the auspices of the Chinese Communist Party‘s [CCP] People’s Daily newspaper…” Think of it as the CCP house organ.

That snapshot tees up the fact that there and in various places around the world, the Wuhan Virus is being used as cover for various problematic activities. See the report linked below for more.

With that update, let’s pivot to the first part of our headline, the surprising results reported on mainstream housing activity as the partial shut-down of the U.S. economy is increasingly being lifted. That will be found beyond our left-right headline news snapshot, quotable quotes and U.S. market data at the closing bell.

The quote by President Obama is often agreed to by people on either side of that left-right media divide. Not only in politics, but also with respect to manufactured housing, there is a need to challenge the narrative spun by the so-called Omaha-Knoxville-Arlington axis and their allies. Not only must the prevailing narrative be challenged, it must be repeatedly challenged, because efforts at manipulation and propaganda are arguably ongoing too.

Featured Focus – Where Business, Politics and Investing Can Meet

AEI.HousingCenterReportsSurprisingSurgeStateByStatePostCOVID19HousingDataJimmyLaiChinaHongKongStormPlusManufacturedHomeInvestingStockUpdatesMHProNewsPhotoLogos

The following is a release today from the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) Housing Center Direct Edward Pinto to MHProNews. The snapshot will be followed by additional information, plus an MHProNews analysis and commentary.

 

Week 21 (May 18th – May 22nd, 2020)

Nowcasting is the prediction of present economic trends using alternative data sources that are both detailed and high-frequency. This report uses real-time information on a weekly basis.

Key Takeaways:

The purchase market has achieved a striking degree of normalcy in the past couple of weeks, as evidenced by rate lock volume.

  • In a remarkable turnaround, purchase rate lock volume for the week of May 18 (week 21) was up 18% from a year ago, providing further evidence that the worst of the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown may be behind us.

o          Purchase rate lock volume is back to its level from before the onset of the pandemic (weeks 1 to 8) when purchase rate lock volume was up 16% on average compared to 2019.

o          Over just 3 weeks, the market has not only returned to normalcy, but is up substantially from weeks 14-18 when the average weekly year-over-year decline was 15%.

o          Even volume in states that were lagging behind just last week, such as Pennsylvania or New York, has started to recover. For week 21, the only states more than 6% below last year’s volume are Massachusetts (down 22%) and Hawaii (down 16%).

  • National home price appreciation (HPA) appears to be back in the 5-6% range, similar to before the pandemic.
  • Purchase credit standards have stabilized after some welcome and appropriately targeted credit tightening, much of which took place in March.

o          Credit standards for first-time buyers (FTB) and repeat buyers are tightening at around the same rate since the virus hit.

o          The return of borrowers over the last 3 weeks does not appear to have been driven by loosening lending standards.

o          Rather, repeat buyers are returning to the market as the share of FTBs has fallen from 49.4% in week 20 to 47.3% in week 21.

  • Cash-out refinance rate lock activity was relatively unchanged from the prior week but continues to run well above the pre-crisis period.
