FBN’s Roth – In Defense of Small Business, plus Manufactured Home Investing, Stock Updates

DowJones10102019ManufacturedHomeStockUpdatesBefore diving into the headline, as a teaser for an upcoming report, there will be a look at a progressive publication’s deep dive into one of the wealthiest, most successful individuals. As a coy head fake, that person’s business operation is involved in factory-home building. That said, tonight we will look at a right-of-center commentary from Fox Business on issues that face small business in America. Since thousands of independents still exist in manufactured housing, it is a timely topic which in several ways hits on issues that broadly apply to our industry. Before and after Carol Roth’s commentary, there will be a sandwich of MHProNews analysis. That will be our featured focus this evening, on a day when the markets rose because the U.S. and China are talking. Go figure…

Regular readers please note there is a tweak of our tweak.  Watch carefully as some changes of the ‘standard text’ that follows before our left-right headlines and also in other features near the end of tonight’s reports.

 

Every evening our headlines that follow provide snapshots from two major media outlets on each side of the left-right news spectrum that reflect topics that influence or move investor sentiment. In moments on this business evening report, you can get ‘insights-at-a-glance.’

This report also sets the broader context for manufactured housing markets, in keeping with our mantra, “News through the lens of manufactured homes and factory-built housing” ©.

We begin with headlines left-of-center CNN followed by right-of-center Fox Business. We share closing tickers and other related data courtesy of Yahoo Finance, and more. 5 to 10 minutes reading this MHProNews market report every business night could save you 30 minutes to an hour of similar reading or fact-gathering elsewhere.

Perhaps more important, you will get insights about the industry from experts that care, but also dare to challenge the routine narrative that arguably keeps manufactured housing underperforming during an affordable housing crisis.

Tonight’s Business/Market/Political Impact Spotlight –

FBNsCarolRothPhotoDefenseSmallBusinessPlus10102019ManufacturedHomeInvestingStockUpdatesMHProNews

 

Her brief bio reads as follows, Carol Roth is the creator of the Future File legacy planning system, “recovering” investment banker and host of The Roth Effect podcast.” Tonight’s focus is an op-ed by Roth focused on small business, a topic that is near and dear to the hearts of thousands of manufactured housing independents.

There is an overall fine and insightful analysis of what faces small businesses, which includes thousands of manufactured home operations. That said, what this could use is a strong antitrust argument. That said, more on the far side of this from right-of-center Fox Business.

Carol Roth: Small business is the ‘Rodney Dangerfield’ of the American economy (and that needs to change)

Small businesses have truly become the Rodney Dangerfield of the U.S. economy—while legendary, they “can’t get no respect.” Despite numbering 30.2 million strong, employing around half of the total the workforce and accounting for around half of the total sales in the U.S., the disparate size, ownership, industries and geographies of small business don’t give them enough clout when it comes to Washington and policy.

Given that small businesses are the backbone of the economy, that needs to change.

As we hear from politicians and activists on calls to raise the minimum wage for workers, why doesn’t anybody speak up for the small business owners? Entrepreneurs who start businesses risk their own capital, as well as their time and effort, and nobody guarantees their wages.

Who is speaking up to ensure that small business owners have the continued, appropriate incentives to invest in new and existing businesses? Making it harder for them to hire upsets the risk and reward equation that is critical to starting a business and successfully staying in business.

In fact, in municipalities like New York City that have had to deal with minimum wage increases, small businesses have been forced to cut hours and employees, raise prices and in some cases, close altogether.

ForManySmallBusiessesANewRegulationsCanPutThemOutofBusinessCarolRothFoxBusinessManufacturedHomeProNews

CarolRothWikiFoxBusinessManufacturedHomeProNewsIt’s not just wage regulation, but all regulation, that excessively impacts small business. Whether it is the calls to regulate the technology sector or bills like the new “gig economy” legislation out of California that are sold under the guise of “beating up on big business” and being so-called worker-friendly, any regulation disproportionately hurts small business owners.

In fact, big companies secretly love regulation because regulations are in fact anti-competitive — every new rule, law or compliance measure limits the ability of existing smaller competitors or new start-ups to compete. While big businesses can use their caches of cash to fund new people and procedures to deal with regulation, for many small businesses, a new regulation can put them out of business.

Even the 2018 tax cuts, which gave a series of tax breaks to corporations and individuals alike, favored big businesses over small businesses. Given restrictions on the types of businesses that could use the new, lower tax rate and other nuances of the law, most small businesses did not get the same level of cuts as their larger, corporate counterparts.

Not to say they didn’t get any, because the majority of Americans did, but it clearly put a delineation between smaller and bigger businesses, to the small businesses’ detriment.

As Dangerfield said, “it’s not easy bein’ me”—and it’s not easy being a small business owner. If we want to have a robust economy, we need to ensure that small businesses remain strong.

It is time that Washington remembers the little guys in business on whose shoulders the economy stands.

MHProNews’ has said on several occasions points that mirror Roth’s. Namely, that the power to tax, is the power to destroy. The power to regulate is the power to destroy. Additionally, the ability to stir up negative headlines is the power to harm smaller business that may have had nothing to do with the negative headline.

The industry is underperforming. To get a clear picture of why, industry professionals must be able to sift through the evidence that spans the left-right divide. Here at MHProNews, we strive to provide the reports, fact-checks, analysis, and commentary that can shed meaningful light on what is actually occurring for the industry.

Given the economic data, plus the affordable housing crisis, our industry should be soaring, not snoring.
