NAFTA Replaced by HAFTA? Plus, Manufactured Housing Market Updates

Cnnmoney9.27.2018manufacturedhomestocksmarketsreportsmhpronewsMillions of Americans have been tuned into the Ford-Kavanaugh hearing this afternoon, which at this time are still ongoing.  The Mel Watt/FHFA hearing will be covered another time too.  Markets closed up, and NAFTA vs. HAFTA was one of those hot topics.  That will be our 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.

Naftareplacedbyhaftamhmarketreportsdialybusinessnewsmhpronews

 

At President Donald J. Trump’s press conference last night, he publicly expressed his frustration with Canada, and make it clear he’s close to moving on with Mexico alone.  He praised the deal made with Mexico, made it clear he’d like Canada in the deal, but that it had to be fair to American dairy and others.

Tonight’s report and video come from CNBC. There topline bullets:

  • NAFTA is about to become “HALFTA” unless Canada signs on by Monday, according to an analysis by Cowen Washington Research Group.
  • Cowen’s Chris Krueger sees four scenarios: missing the deadline and negotiating with Mexico’s next president; going ahead with Mexico now and hoping Canada comes in later; blowing up the whole NAFTA agreement; and Canada capitulating by the Sept. 30 deadline.
  • President Donald Trump has bemoaned the multilateral trade deals the U.S. has negotiated and particularly loathes NAFTA.
