U.S. Inventory Grew at Record Pace in July
Mansion Global|11 hours ago
The number of active listings was up 30.7% in July, the fastest pace on record and the third consecutive month of inventory recovery, the data showed. “The U.S. housing market continues to move toward more evenly balanced supply and demand compared to the 2021 frenzy,
‘Americans piled on $40.1 billion worth of debt in June, the Federal Reserve said Friday afternoon. The figure was considerably higher than economists’ forecasts, after May’s revised total of $23.8 billion.’
‘Americans’ borrowing grew by 10.5% in June, compared to 6.3% in May, according to the Fed’s G.19 consumer credit report. Revolving debt — roughly a proxy for outstanding credit card balances — rose by 16% after an 7.8% increase in May.’
‘Non-revolving debt, which includes loans like car loans and student loans, grew by 8.8% after a 5.8% increase in May. These figures exclude mortgage balances, which represent most of the debt carried by households.’
‘On a quarter-to-quarter basis, Americans borrowed an additional $98.9 billion, the Fed said. Friday’s report comes on the heels of a separate release from the New York Fed that reported Americans’ non-housing-related debt ballooned by $103 billion in the second quarter, the largest increase since 2016.’
‘A housing correction which has already led to four consecutive months of price declines in the previously overheated Greater Toronto Area market could end up becoming “one of the deepest of the past half a century,” a new report from RBC warns.’
No smooth landing for Canadian boomers et al.
Now, will they start selling their winter homes in AZ and FL in order to pay for their “main” homes?
‘Earlier this summer, HousingWire lead analyst Logan Mohtashami told Fortune that higher mortgage rates would both slow down the housing market and “put builders on their ass.” As the housing cycle “turns over,” existing home inventory—which is builders’ true competition—will continue to rise. That will cause new-home sales and housing starts to fall, Mohtashami says.’
‘We’re already seeing it. On a year-over-year basis, sales of new single-family homes are down 17.4%, while single-family housing starts are down 15.7%. Simply put: Homebuilders have already been put “on their ass.”
Why that’s savagely unhealthy! – fooking clown. Wa happen to yer pom poms?
I don’t care about these people putting everything they have into the housing casino, but the government should not play croupier with taxpayers on the hook.
‘SoftBank Group Corp.’s Masayoshi Son said he plans widespread cost cutting at his Japanese conglomerate and its Vision Fund investment arm after a record $23.4 billion loss on plunging portfolio valuations and foreign currency losses. Shares dropped.’
‘The Tokyo-based company lost the vast majority of that money — $17.3 billion — in the Vision Fund, as it marked down the value of holdings such as Coupang Inc., SenseTime Group Ltd. and DoorDash Inc. SoftBank also reported a $6.1 billion foreign exchange loss because of the weaker yen.’
‘The 64-year-old struck a darkly somber tone after the results Monday, taking responsibility for buying into startups at the height of the market and pledging to slash expenses to get back on track. Son said he will review “everything” for potential cuts without any “sacred cows.” SoftBank will scrutinize senior and junior employees in both front and back offices to an extent never experienced before.’
“The loss is the biggest in our corporate history and we take it very seriously,” Son said during a press conference in Tokyo. “We have to resort to big cost-cutting efforts at Vision Fund. The cost cutting efforts will have to include a reduction in head count – something I’ve made up my mind to do.”
