		<description><![CDATA[Energy and basic materials took the benchmarks modestly higher on Friday, snapping a three-day losing streak. However, meager gains failed to prevent the Dow and S&#38;P 500 from suffering their worst weekly performance this year. Global economic concerns weighed on investors through the week and their influence carried onto Friday. Moreover, tepid housing data made matters worse on Friday, limiting gains. On Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) gained 0.3% and closed the day at 13,080.73. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) was also up 0.3% and finished Friday’s trading session at 1,397.11. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index edged up 0.1% and settled at 3,067.92. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) lost 4.8% and closed at 14.82. Consolidated volumes on the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Better housing data and a drop in four-week moving average of initial claims joined hands to guide the benchmarks higher yesterday, providing investors another hope that S&#38;P 500 might just end 2011 on a positive note. With yesterday’s gains, the Dow washed out the losses it suffered on Wednesday and sits comfortably in the green for the year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) jumped 1.1% to settle at 12,287.04. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 inched up 1.1% and finished yesterday’s trading at 1,263.02. The Nasdaq Composite Index closed at 2,613.74, moving up by 0.9%. Reflecting subdued fears in the markets, the fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index dropped 3.7% and settled at 22.65. While investors stay busy in the festive mood, the Street yet again posted low volumes. Consolidated volumes on ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Markets opted to take a pause after a recent rally, as mixed economic data and a session featuring light volumes meant benchmarks ended Tuesday’s session on a flat note. Given the Christmas overhang, consolidated volumes remained substantively low, and final minutes’ movement took the Dow slightly lower to end its winning run of four consecutive trading days. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) slipped 2.6 points or 0.02% to finish the day at 12,291.35. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) also remained almost unchanged at 1,265.43, gaining 0.01%. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 0.3% and finished yesterday’s trading session at 2,625.20. The fear-gauge CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) went up 5.7% to settle at 21.91. Consolidated volumes on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NYSE Amex and Nasdaq, were ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The housing market continues to struggle as news today indicates that new-home sales fell during July to the lowest level in five months. Sales decreased by 0.7% on a monthly basis to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 298,000. This is the worst number since February. Sales figures for June were also revised downward to a bigger decline&#8211;2.9% vs the 1% originally reported. The annual rate of 298,000 is far below the &#8220;healthy&#8221; rate of @750,000 sales annually. The housing market is still being battered by tight credit, increased lending standards, and a wave of foreclosures, short sales, etc. New Homes face particular problems because existing homes as well as those being sold under duress are providing cheaper alternatives for those able to secure financing. Below, we provide our Critical VE data points for the ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently came across this piece written by Larry Kudlow, the host of two shows on CNBC. It is from June 20, 2005: “Homebuilders led the stock parade this week with a fantastic 11 percent gain. This is a group that hedge funds and bubbleheads love to hate. All the bond bears have been dead wrong in predicting sky-high mortgage rates. So have all the bubbleheads who expect housing-price crashes in Las Vegas or Naples, Florida, to bring down the consumer, the rest of the economy, and the entire stock market. None of this has happened&#8230;[T]he homebuilders index has increased 76 percent over the past year, with particularly well-run companies like Toll Brothers (TOL) up about twice as much. The bubbleheads missed all this because they haven’t done their homework&#8230;. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Three of the largest homebuilders in the U.S., including Beazer Homes USA Inc. (BZH), KB Home (KBH) and Toll Brothers Inc. (TOL), have decided to pay lenders up to $340 million to meet their claims and settle legal actions related to a failed housing development deal near Las Vegas. Individually, Los Angeles-based KB Home will be required to pay approximately $216 million–$225 million to the lenders and is expected to incur net obligation charges between $216 million and $240 million. Beazer will reportedly pay an amount somewhere between $15.7 million and $17 million, while Toll Brothers is said to have reached a cash settlement for an undisclosed amount with lenders. Reportedly, another homebuilder, Arizona-based Meritage Homes Corporation (MTH) also owes $13.2 million to its lenders under the same bankruptcy settlement. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The latest Case-Shiller data&#8211;released today, confirms that housing prices in the U.S. are suffering from a double dip.  Home prices fell 4.2% in the first quarter of 2011 and have a hit a new post-bubble low.   To make matters worse, 60% of the component cities in the Case-Shiller index posted new lows in March.  Only Washington DC and Seattle posted increases in prices.  Overall, prices are now at levels last seen in 2002.  Analysts have found that the end of the home buyer tax credit last year removed much-needed support for the market. Our Chief Market Strategist Richard Suttmeier has been predicting this event for quite some time now.  His analysis of the housing and banking sectors has been quite accurate with warnings about the frailty of the market and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Tuesday, markets felt the pinch of disappointing quarterly results and the benchmarks slid a few points as investors feared profitability might drop over the coming quarters. Over the past couple of weeks, markets have remained upbeat, climbing to multi-year highs following robust corporate results. Additionally, a drop in crude prices weighed down the energy sector. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) was the only gainer among the benchmarks as it edged up 0.2% to 12,807.51. The Standard &#38; poor 500 dropped 0.3% and the Nasdaq slipped 0.8% to settle at 1,356.62 and 12,807.51, respectively.

Our Chief Market Strategist Richard Suttmeier has been tracking this issue for years now, and called the initial bubble way before most analysts.  He notes in his most recent ValuEngine FDIC Report that ]]></description>

A jump in commodity prices, aided by a falling dollar, also helped push stocks higher and the blue-chip Dow average closed at its highest level since late April. Twenty-three of the 30 DJIA components ended in the green as the index gained 31 points, or 0.3%, to close at 11,164, its highest close in almost six months. The technology-laden Nasdaq Composite index gained 11.46 points, or 0.5%, to 2490.85. The broader S&#38;P’s 500-stock index edged up 2.54 points, or 0.2%, to 1185.62.

		<description><![CDATA[A rally in the last half hour of trading sent U.S. stocks higher on Wednesday, as Japan’s move to rein in the yen helped the U.S. dollar regain some strength. The Japanese currency had risen to a new 15-year high against the greenback on Tuesday, prompting the Japanese prime minister to announce measures to control the yen’s rise. The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 46 points, or about 0.4%, to close at 10,573. The DJIA closed at its highest level since August 10. The Nasdaq added 12 points, or 0.5%, to close the day at 2,301, and the S&#38;P 500 increased 4 points, or 0.4%, to end at 1,125.07. The broader index failed to break the key technical level of 1130.

		<description><![CDATA[Stocks added to the gains from the previous session after better-than-expected retail and housing numbers helped boost confidence in the economy. However, caution ahead of today’s monthly payroll data restrained traders from making big moves. As traders chose to play it safe, volume dipped sharply. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 51 points, or 0.5%, to 10,320.10. The blue-chip average had jumped 254 points on Wednesday on better-than-expected manufacturing reports in China and the U.S. The Standard &#38; Poor&#8217;s 500 index advanced 10 points, or 0.9%, to 1,090.10, while the Nasdaq composite index climbed 23.17, or 1.1%, to 2,200.01.

Thus, relative to where we thought we were, the increase was more like 10%. Relative to a year ago, sales were down 16.7% from last year’s rate of 396,000. On a not-seasonally-adjusted basis, sales were just 30,000 for the month &#8212; the weakest June on record. Results by Region Regionally, based on the seasonally adjusted numbers and the revised May figures, the biggest increase was in the Northeast where sales jumped 46.4%, and were up 17.1% from a year ago. The Northeast is the smallest of the four census regions for housing data, and even with the big ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In distinct contrast to the existing home sales report last week, new home sales were ugly in September, falling 3.6% for the month and down 7.8% year over year. The seasonally adjusted annual rate in September was 402.000 down from 417,000 in August, which was revised down from the originally reported 429,000. This came in well below consensus expectations of 440,000. The good news in the report was that inventories also continued to decline, to 251,000 from 261,000 in August (down 3.8%) and from 395,000 a year ago (down 36.5%). That kept the months of supply metric even at 7.5 months, a big improvement over the 10.9 months of a year ago, and the scary peak of 12.4 months in January. There is a distinct seasonal pattern to new home ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In August, the seasonally adjusted annual rate (SAAR) of existing home sales was 5.10 million, a decline of 2.7% from the 5.24 million pace in July, and well below the 5.35 million pace expected by the consensus of economists. However, it was a 3.4% improvement from the 4.93 million pace of a year ago. The month-over-month decline came despite mortgage rates being slightly lower in August (5.19%) than in July (5.22%). Rates are well below the 6.48% of a year ago. The median price, which is not the best measure of home prices since it can be affected by mix shifts, fell 12.5% from a year ago to $177,700. Existing home sales do follow a distinct seasonal pattern (as can be seen in the graph from http://www.calculatedriskblog.com/ below), so seasonal ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The August data on Building Permits and Housing Starts show a slight increase for both nationwide, but the gains all came from multi-family structures, primarily in the Northeast. Both the total permits and the total starts numbers were in line with consensus expectations. Looking first at permits, the nationwide total rose to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 579,000, a 2.7% increase from 564,000 in July, but 32.4% below a year ago. The Northeast was by far the strongest region with a 14.3% monthly increase, but that still left it 24.7% below year ago levels. The Northeast is, however, the smallest and least important region of the country when it comes to housing (11.1% of all permits).
