The National
Association of Homebuilders (NAHB) announced its housing market index (HMI) rose
four points to 62 in February. That was the highest reading since October 2018.
Economists forecast
the HMI to increase to 59.
A reading over 50
indicates more builders view conditions as good than poor.
All three HMI
components were higher this month. The current sales measure increased three
points to 67 in early February. At the same time, the index charting
expectations in the next six months rose five points to 68 and the indicator
measuring buyer traffic went up four points to 48.
NAHB Chairman Randy
Noel noted: “Ongoing reduction in mortgage rates in recent weeks coupled with
continued strength in the job market are helping to fuel builder sentiment. In
the aftermath of the fall slowdown, many builders are reporting positive expectations
for the spring selling season.”
Meanwhile, NAHB Chief
Economist Robert Dietz said: “Builder confidence levels moved up in tandem with
growing consumer confidence and falling interest rates... However,
affordability remains a critical issue. Rising costs stemming from excessive
regulations, a dearth of buildable lots, a persistent labor shortage and
tariffs on lumber and other key building materials continue to make it
increasingly difficult to produce housing at affordable price points.”

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
