If you’re new, already hooked on our new spotlight feature – or are ready to get the MH professional fever – our headline report is found further below, after the newsmaker bullets and major indexes closing tickers.
The evolving Daily Business News market report sets the manufactured home industry’s stocks in the broader context of the overall markets. Headlines – at home and abroad – often move the markets. So, this is an example of “News through the lens of manufactured homes, and factory-built housing.” ©
Part of this unique evening feature provides headlines – from both sides of the left-right media divide – which saves busy readers time, while underscoring topics that may be moving investors, which in turn move the markets.
Readers say this is also a useful quick-review tool that saves researchers time in getting a handle of the manufactured housing industry, through the lens of publicly-traded stocks connected with the manufactured home industry.
This is an exclusive evening or nightly example of MH “Industry News, Tips and Views, Pros Can Use.” © It is fascinating to see just how similar, and different, these two lists of headlines can be.

Today’s Big Movers

Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –
The National Association and CNBC reports this evening that Chinese buyers are expanding their reach in the U.S. housing market, as middle class home buyers, with numbers seeking financing, are getting in on the act.
- For 6 straight years, Chinese buyers have been the top foreign buyers in both units and dollar volume of residential housing, according to the National Association of Realtors ™ (NAR), and now they expanding to new, lower-price tiers.
- More middle-class Chinese buyers are searching for lower-priced homes and they are using mortgages much more often, said the NAR.
- While California is still the favorite among Chinese buyers, they’re moving into other markets, such as Texas, Georgia, and Florida.
- “Chinese consumers may have soured on some American products, like iPhones, but they have only sweetened on U.S. residential real estate,” said CNBC.
According the Wikipedia, about 5.6 percent of those in the U.S. are Asian Americans. But Foremost research reflects that only about 1 percent of manufactured home owners are Asian in origin.
This is one of several barriers of acceptance that the manufactured housing industry has not yet generally addressed, as the data reflects.
