MHCV values went up 0.39%. In the manufactured housing stocks we track, some went down slightly and others only made a minimal increase. Leaders were KMP – 1.36% and UMH – 1.04%.
Marketwatch tells MHProNews that U.S. stocks rallied towards the end of the session Tuesday, sending the benchmark S&P 500 to its highest close this year. Investor optimism was fueled by hopes that embattled Greece and its creditors are nearing a compromise to avert a default, although both sides continued to reiterate their stances.
The mood on Wall Street was also boosted by better-than-expected earnings from companies such as Coca-Cola and CVS. The S&P closed 21.84 points, or 1.1%, higher at 2,068.58 and turned positive for the year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 139.55 points, or 0.8%, to 17,868.76. The Nasdaq Composite added 61.63 points, or 1.3%, to 4,787.64.
When it comes to oil stocks, whom do you believe? Oil racked up a 9% gain in the last three sessions, but some say that oil may drop $30 a barrel from current levels, as rig counts continue to decline.
