Today’s Big Movers

For all the scores and highlights on tracked manufactured home connected stocks today, see the Bloomberg graphic, posted below.

Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –

After a stellar performance in 2017, the home construction ETF (ITB) is in correction territory, but one technician believes this might just be your best time to buy the group,” says CNBC’s Trading Nation.

We’ve corrected right back to a good identifiable support, the 200-day moving average,” Craig Johnson, a senior technical research analyst at Piper Jaffray, said bet on a comeback for homebuilders. “I suspect that’s the spot where perhaps a little bit more rational thinking comes in and we see a bit of a relief rally or perhaps more start to unfold.”

 

But there are other views, besides the these.  MHProNews recently spotlighted concerns by the NAR, which is linked below.

“Starting” Dip in Home Sales, New Crisis Says Housing Experts

These could – in theory – be reasons for manufactured housing to cheer.  But an MHI only member builder told MHProNews today something the Daily Business News has noted before. If you subtract out homes being sold by producers going into communities, mostly as rentals, the industry remains flat.

The Masthead

‘Over Target’ Reactions, WHA Exec (ret) Ross Kinzler, Won’t Defend MHI Policies & Points to Prior MHI Failure, Ross Kinzler, Amy Bliss, George Allen, Rick Robinson, Tim Williams, Richard Dick Jennison, Daily Business News, Masthead blog, MHProNews,

It’s a vote of no confidence in the ‘leadership’ being shown in Arlington, which is busy cheer-leading instead of problem solving, says another MH production source.

It today’s closing numbers indicate some manufactured home producers are at or near 12 month highs.  That doesn’t disprove the MHI member producer’s concern, but it is a reminder that at least for now, there is growth.

Tomorrow, the January 2018 HUD Code housing production report is expected. Stay tuned.
