That said, Marcus & Millichap, Inc. (MMI) invited MHProNews to attend their webinar, which reportedly had record attendance, no doubt due to the timely content. That will be further below.
In our left-right headline recap, there are some notable and problematic bullets. It is part of the reality of news – perhaps even more so when it is pandemic related – today. With that caveat, let’s dive into our nightly market reports.
Every Business Evening – Headline Insights-at-a-Glance.
Every weekday night that the stock markets are open, we provide headlines from left-of-center CNN followed by right-of-center Fox Business. It is sometimes surprising how much We share closing tickers and other related data courtesy of Yahoo Finance, and more. 5 to 10 minutes reading this MHProNews market report every business night could save you 30 minutes to an hour of similar reading or fact-gathering elsewhere.
Perhaps more important, you will get insights about the industry from experts that care, but also dare to challenge the routine narrative that arguably keeps manufactured housing underperforming during an affordable housing crisis.

10 Market Indicator Closing Summaries – Yahoo Finance Closing Tickers on MHProNews…
Featured Focus – Where Business, Politics and Investing Can Meet
MHProNews plans to refer to some of this data in the days ahead. A few points are worth mentioning.
- Much of the factual material pulled together by Marcus & Millichap, Inc. provides a useful set of references, not only for commercial real estate, but also for the broader economic and historic picture.
- MMI shared some historic comparison data that could be summed up like this. While this may be an unprecedented event – the federal and state governments shutting down private businesses for the sake of a response to a pandemic – MMI’s statements and data reflect an unprecedented and prompt response by the Trump Administration, the Federal Reserve (Fed), Congress and others.
- Perhaps for political reasons, the terms President Trump and Trump Administration were avoided in their discussion.
- The overall thrust of the comments might be summed up like this. There will be winners and losers. But the steps taken, given the decision to respond to the COVID19 pandemic in this fashion as have so many other nations has been swift.
- Manufactured housing was not specifically addressed, but some of the broad brush points below will shed light on that topic.
- The numbers on the slides are arbitrary and not those of MMI, and were used simply to show the sequence of the original presentation.
The related reports may prove more meaningful in the light of the above.
