Company News
The August jobs report showed weak job growth of only 22,000 jobs, missing expectations and potentially increasing the likelihood of a Federal Reserve interest rate cut in September, which could impact stock market dynamics.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's dovish signals at Jackson Hole suggest potential rate cuts, boosting homebuilder stocks. July new home sales exceeded expectations, with falling prices and mortgage incentives attracting buyers.
Homebuilder stocks are experiencing a rally despite ongoing challenges in the housing market, including high mortgage rates and reduced construction permits. The SPDR S&P Homebuilders ETF is trading near its highest level since December, but uncertainties remain about future housing market conditions.
Trump's tariffs on imports like steel, aluminum, and lumber could increase the cost of home construction in the US by up to 6%, leading to a $17,000-$22,000 rise in new home prices. This could hurt housing affordability, especially for first-time buyers, as the US already faces a significant housing shortage.
