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.

Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –

 

What Does the President’s New EO Mean for Small Businesses?

President Trump signed an executive order on Friday that will affect how you save for retirement, said Fox Business.  The president’s take, from North Carolina today, is outlined in the video below.

 

A White House spokesperson said the measure – which directs the Treasury and Labor Department to consider issuing regulations or guidelines – will look at updating the rules on required minimum distributions for retirement plans, in an effort to allow retirees to stash away more money in their accounts for a longer period of time.

Under current law, retirees are required to begin withdrawing funds from retirement accounts when they turn 70.5.

POTUS Trump is also asking the administration to look into ways to make work-based retirement programs more affordable for small businesses, in order to increase the number of those businesses that offer options.

One potential measure, for example, would be to allow small businesses to band together to offer joint plans.  This would be somewhat similar to what is done under the administration’s plan for health care plans.

According to the Trump administration, only 53 percent of businesses with fewer than 100 employees offer workplace retirement plans, compared with nearly 90 percent of businesses with more than 100 workers that do so.

In addition to reducing costs for more small businesses to offer plans, the order directs federal agencies to look at ways to reduce bureaucratic barriers.
