Builder confidence in the market for newly built single-family homes fell two points to 68 in June on the NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index (HMI). The decline was due in large part to sharply elevated lumber prices, although sentiment remains on solid footing.
"Builders are optimistic about housing market conditions as consumer demand continues to grow," said NAHB Chairman Randy Noel. "However, builders are increasingly concerned that tariffs placed on Canadian lumber and other imported products are hurting housing affordability. Record-high lumber prices have added nearly $9,000 to the price of a new single-family home since January 2017."

UniCredit cuts its estimate for EUR/USD to 1.20 for the end of 2018, compared with previous guidance of 1.32. In 2019, EUR/USD is likely to reach 1.25 and not 1.36, as previously expected. "We continue to see the recent strengthening of the dollar as temporary as a fiscal expansion this late in the cycle is usually associated with forex weakness," UniCredit says. "However, the uncertainty surrounding the impact of higher U.S. tariffs on highly export-oriented regions, as well as increased political uncertainty in the eurozone, will likely lead to investment flows being less dollar-bearish - and less euro-positive - than we previously thought."
Appetite for carry trades is likely to go up after the European Central Bank said last week it wouldn't raise interest rates at least until after the summer of 2019, UniCredit says. Such a clear forward guidance is good for carry trades because it creates a low volatility environment, which supports carry returns. The carry trades are likely to be concentrated in the mid-section of the bond yield curve, UniCredit says.
