Manufactured Housing Composite Value (MHCV)
Today’s Big Movers
For all the scores and highlights on tracked manufactured home connected stocks today, see the Bloomberg graphic, posted below.
Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –
- “A bill put forth by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., aims to make loans more affordable by offering retail banking services at the U.S. Postal Service,” says CNBC.
- The proposal opens questions as to how the loans will be paid for and serviced.
- While the odds this year on this passing would be low, what happens after the midterms could change the calculus on a bill like this in the future.
- Its one for manufactured housing pros to watch. Gillibrand’s logic on this bill, could it extend to manufactured home loans later?
- The legislation, called the Postal Banking Act, would make retail banking services available at all U.S. Postal Service locations. That amounts to 30,000 post offices nationwide.
