Consensus for a print of 313k with the actual missing at 307k, but as usual, the devil is in the details. The New Home Sales print is an annualized print, the actual number of new homes sold was only 25k! The average new home sale price dropped to a 8+ year low, or in other words, new homes are selling for roughly the same amount as they did before the housing bubble began. Furthermore in the $750k+ category, less then 500 new homes sold in the US for the 3rd consecutive month in a row. This just validates my long term bullishness on the Ultrashort real estate ETF SRS above. |
