U.S. pending
home sales drop slightly more than forecast in December
The National
Association of Realtors (NAR) announced on Friday its seasonally adjusted
pending home sales index (PHSI) slipped 0.3 percent m-o-m to 125.5 in December,
after a revised 2.5 percent m-o-m drop in November (originally a 2.6 percent m-o-m
decline). This marked the fourth consecutive monthly drop in the value of the
index.
Economists had
expected pending home sales to edged down 0.1 m-o-m in December.
On y-o-y basis,
the index surged 21.4 percent, following a revised 16.6 percent jump in November
(originally a 16.4 percent m-o-m climb).
According to
the report, two of all four regional indices recorded month-over-month increases
in December, but all four regions rose at double-digit rates from one year ago.
The index in
the Midwest dropped 3.6 percent m-o-m to 111.7 last month, up 13.9 from
December 2019. Meanwhile, the index in the West was flat m-o-m in December, holding
at 111.3, which was up 18.9 percent from a year ago. The Northeast PHSI went up
3.1 percent m-o-m to 112.0 in December, a 22.1 percent surge from a year ago. Pending
home sales in the South edged up 0.1 percent m-o-m to an index of 150.6 in
December, up 26.6 percent from December 2019.
"Pending
home sales contracts have dipped during recent months, but I would attribute
that to having too few homes for sale," noted Lawrence Yun, NAR's chief
economist. "There is a high demand for housing and a great number of
would-be buyers, and therefore sales should rise with more new listings."

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.
