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 MH Market Spotlight Report –
Following the victory of George H. W. Bush (GOP) and his “Compassionate Conservatism” and overseas adventures, there has been a steady rise in the federal debt. Candidate Senator Barack H. Obama (IL-D) blasted POTUS Bush’s debt, and once elected, proceeded to outspend his Oval Office predecessor.
The federal government doesn’t have a revenue problem. Despite political jargon, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act did what happened under Democratic President John F. Kennedy, or Republican President Ronald Reagan. Taxes were cut, and revenues grew.
What’s going wrong is spending is not being controlled. Under our constitution, the president doesn’t have the power to control spending, that’s the Congress’ job. “No taxation without representation” – was a battle cry of the colonists in their revolt against England’s King. So the House and Senate are elected to spend, at least in theory, within constitutional limits.
The federal debt is an issue. Debt service is growing, and as interest rates rise, it will take a bigger bite out of the federal government’s spending.
POTUS Trump has told his cabinet to find savings in their respective departments. We’ll see where that goes, but at least it is being discussed.
It’s political theater to say that the issue is the fault of the President and the GOP, or only of Democrats. Both need to do at some level what occurred in the Clinton administration, a grand bargain that restores some common sense to federal spending.
That doesn’t seem likely during the next 2 years. Why? To learn more, see the Green New Deal reports, linked below.
