On September 23, 2019, MHProNews published a report on the Arabella Advisors. The significance for that will be part of the ‘featured focus’ further report below that deals with the perennial headline topic.
Periodic readers of this business-nightly feature should note there are new tweaks to some of the standard portions of our evening market/investing report. Read carefully as some changes of the ‘standard text’ that follows before our left-right headlines and also in other features near the end of tonight’s reports.
Every evening our headlines that follow provide snapshots from two major media outlets on each side of the left-right news spectrum that reflect topics that influence or move investor sentiment. In moments on this business evening report, you can get ‘insights-at-a-glance.’
This report also sets the broader context for manufactured housing markets, in keeping with our mantra, “News through the lens of manufactured homes and factory-built housing” ©.
We begin with headlines left-of-center CNN followed by right-of-center Fox Business. 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 has previously noted concerns over arguably problematic reports by others in the industry. This is notably associated with those who are aligned with the Omaha-Knoxville-Arlington axis narrative.
There are publications and websites that range from ugly to slick. While there is a tendency in human nature to ‘judge the book by the cover,’ appearances alone should not be a reason to discount a source. That said, an ugly looking source in our industry often happens to have arguably weaponized or ugly content. But among the slickest looking websites is one that is also purportedly problematic content, but it is viewed so little, that it begs the question: why are the powers that be investing so much money into content that is by their own data claims being viewed so little?
One purported answer is troubling. It involves a claim that the items are designed in part for investors and/or regulators to consider – in which case, it may be misleading them in a variety of ways. So, from time to time, it is worth looking at what industry professionals are reading, at what levels of engagement and how does that compare to other ‘similar’ resources based upon known evidence. Here is the engagement on two recent articles on MHI alligned MHInsider.
A reasonably definitive view of traffic and data comparisons is found at this link below. It is a publication that itself has said partners with the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) and has featured their staff as writers.
As noted in the teaser at the top of tonight’s feature, on September 23, 2019, MHProNews published a report on the Arabella Advisors. Per Webalizer, in the month of February, as of the date and time shown, an article that is 5 month-old has had some 3x more hits this month than both of the MHInsider articles spotlighted above had total views in this same month. Rephrased, their engagement with industry professionals is shockingly low, per their own viewer data. Let’s compare that to engagement on not our top articles, but on our #250th ranked MHProNews linked report.

This next MHProNews article was published on August 2, 2019. It has had 10 more hits than the one shown above. What these data points logically reflect is this. Readers on MHProNews are not only reading current reports, but they are diving deeper into archived reports that are months or even years old. Typos aside, the engagement level on our website is an objective measure for how superior readers find our content or information and analysis to be.

The hottest single read this month on MHProNews is the top article below, and has over 68,000 hits. As noted, it is frankly an unusually high hit count. But that is likely because of the topic and headline, which hits numbers of hot buttons in MHVille.
The top 12 most read articles in February 2020 – noting again that these are all from a single cPanel and there are over a dozen others – are as shown below.
As of the data and time shown, engagement by the typical visitor in February 2020 is 5.39 pages per visit. There are well over 2 million visits per year on MHProNews, per Webalizer data. In a boutique industry, it is an astonishing engagement rate.
Our thanks to readers and those who make our reports possible. Thanks too for those who provide news tips.
Team work has made and kept MHProNews the runaway most-read professional news, tips and views resource in all of manufactured housing. Nothing else that claims to be in the same niche even comes close.
