Why Today’s Housing Market Is Not About To Crash There’s been some concern lately that the housing market is headed for a crash. And given some of the affordability challenges in the housing market, along with a lot of recession talk in the media, it’s easy enough to understand why that worry has come up. But the data clearly shows today’s market is very different than it was before the housing crash in 2008. Rest assured, this isn’t a repeat of what happened back then. Here’s why. >>It’s Harder To Get a Loan Now It was much easier to get a home loan during the lead-up to the 2008 housing crisis than it is today. Things are different now as purchasers face increasingly higher standards from mortgage companies. >>Unemployment Recovered Faster This Time While the pandemic caused unemployment to spike over the last couple of years, the jobless rate has already recovered back to pre-pandemic... #realestate #homeownership #homebuying www.DanFreshley.com

CPI Coming in Hot. Bonds Feeling The Burn

It is a very straightforward morning for the bond market, but not in any sort of pleasant way.  There was a lot at stake heading into today's inflation data and the results carried clear implications for bonds.  Sadly, the implications are not great.  Core monthly inflation came in at 0.4% versus a 0.3% forecast.  Year over year numbers stayed at 3.9% rather than falling to the 3.7% forecast (extra decimals in the underlying numbers explain why we can see a 0.2% miss in annual but only a 0.1% miss in monthly).  Bonds shot higher immediately and somewhat significantly--easily breaking the 4.19% ceiling in 10yr Treasury yields.   This only increases the burden of proof on downbeat economic data to hearken a turning point in inflation. With a strong jobs report in the rearview, we're basically starting at square one. http://dlvr.it/T2hb0r
