State of Blue-Collar Workforce White Paper, Plus Manufactured Home Stock Updates

CNNmone4.22.2019ManufacturedHomeStocksMarketsReportsMHProNewsAs a debate is stirred by several Democratic 2020 presidential hopefuls about ‘free college,’ or student loan debt forgiveness, a recent report spotlighted positive news about the blue-collar sector. On a day when 2 of the 3 major markets rose, and industry stocks closed largely lower, that white paper on the State of Blue-Collar Workforce is our featured item 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.

Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report – 

It goes without saying that many of the jobs performed in the manufactured housing sector are blue collar jobs. So this report sheds useful light on those trying to get their head around various trends and claims.

When a white-paper is produced that is useful to a firm, organization, or industry the norm is to publicize it.

That’s being painfully proven by Manufactured Housing Action (MHAction), which co-authored a so-called white paper on private equity firms behavior in MHVille. But when MHI produced a report that claims to demonstrate customer satisfaction, instead of publicizing it, they hide it behind a member login? What do you call that kind of odd behavior?

We’ll let that question hang, as we turn to the white paper by Express Employment Pros on the state of the blue collar workforce.

Here’s the lead to their release for the white paper.

Previously a declining sector of the United States workforce, blue collar jobs are growing at the fastest rate in nearly three and a half decades, yet workers are scarcer than ever, according to studies from The Washington Post and The Conference Board, respectively. This unique combination of circumstances creates significant new opportunities for Americans who may not have a college education. And, as they look to invest in a career, they face a question: is taking a blue collar job a smart decision?”
