The National
Association of Realtors (NAR) announced on Thursday its seasonally adjusted
pending home sales index (PHSI) tumbled 21.8 percent m-o-m to 69.0 in April,
after a 20.8 percent m-o-m decline in March.
Economists had
expected pending home sales to decrease 15 percent m-o-m in April.
On y-o-y basis,
the index sank 33.8 percent after a 16.3 percent plunge in March.
According to
the report, all regional indices recorded m-o-m declines in April. The
Northeast PHSI slumped 48.2 percent m-o-m to 42.6 in April, 52.6 percent lower
than a year ago. In the Midwest, the index dropped 15.9 percent m-o-m to 72.0
last month, down 26.0 percent from April 2019. Pending home sales in the South fell
15.4 percent m-o-m to an index of 87.6 in April, a 29.6 percent drop from April
2019. The index in the West decreased 20.0 percent m-o-m in April 2020 to 57.1,
down 37.2 percent from a year ago.
However, Lawrence
Yun, NAR’s chief economist, expects that April will be the lowest point for
pending contracts, and the month of May, consequently, will be the lowest point
for closed sales. “While coronavirus mitigation efforts have disrupted contract
signings, the real estate industry is ‘hot’ in affordable price points with the
wide prevalence of bidding wars for the limited inventory,” he said. “In the
coming months, buying activity will rise as states reopen and more consumers
feel comfortable about homebuying in the midst of the social distancing
measures.”

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.
