China, Trade, Tariffs, and Chicken – Plus Manufactured Home Equities Updates

CNNmone2.7.2019ManufacturedHomeStocksMarketsReportsMHProNewsWhen the words “China,” “trade,” “tariffs,” and the “U.S.” enters mainstream news – depending on how optimistic or pessimistic it sounds – traders and thus the markets have been responding.  For much of 2018 and now in 2019 those words move the markets – either up or down. It’s a game of trade chicken.  Their markets have been impacted, so have U.S. markets.  On a day when manufactured home connected equities have closed mixed, a look at today’s news on China-U.S. trade – plus a step back, will provide useful perspective – that will span the left-right divide. That will be our market focus for this evening.

If you’re new, already hooked on our new spotlight feature – or are ready to get the MH professional fever – our headline report is found further belowafter the newsmaker bullets and major indexes closing tickers.

The evolving Daily Business News market report sets the manufactured home industry’s stocks in the broader context of the overall markets.  Headlines – at home and abroad – often move the markets.  So, this is an example of “News through the lens of manufactured homes, and factory-built housing.” ©

Part of this unique evening feature provides headlines – from both sides of the left-right media divide – which saves busy readers time, while underscoring topics that may be moving investors, which in turn move the markets.

Readers say this is also a useful quick-review tool that saves researchers time in getting a handle of the manufactured housing industry, through the lens of publicly-traded stocks connected with the manufactured home industry.

This is an exclusive evening or nightly example of MH “Industry News, Tips and Views, Pros Can Use.” © It is fascinating to see just how similar, and different, these two lists of headlines can be.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged on Thursday after Kudlow’s comments,” reported Fox Business.

National Economic Council Director Larry Kudlow told reporters outside the White House on Thursday that President Trump expects to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping. But the location, time, and place are not set. Investors see the looming deadline for trade talks to resolve the issue of pending new tariffs being missed.

The world’s two largest economies have been engaged in a tit-for-tat trade battle for nearly a year. The countries have slapped billions of dollars’ worth of tariffs on one another’s goods, though both sides agreed to a 90-day trade truce during the Group of 20 summit in late December,” said Fox Business.

CNBC presented their version of the event in the report shown below.

 

 

What’s useful is to step back and consider points made just yesterday by Treasury Secretary Mnuchin, ‘We’ve made progress with China on key points,’ per CNBC.

 

 

Gordon Chang is an expert on China, and a critic.  He discusses the ongoing China trade talks in the video below.

 

 

There are reports that manufactured housing producers are ordering products from China that are components for their homes.  Of course, there are also Chinese prefabs that are being shipped to the U.S. for specific projects, usually multifamily, but not always.

So on a day when we looked at Asian unicorn Revolution Prefabricated, see the report below, it is interesting that ‘China, China, China’ was on the mind of traders – and pushed the broader markets lower.

Don’t be surprised when they bounce back up, because the fundamentals are still sound.
