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 markets and stocks, at the closing bell…
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 –
It’s simple. Workers are among those who buy homes. A loss of workers in a firm as big as GM can have ripple effects, especially in those markets where the jobs are about to be cut.
Markets broadly moved up today, with only the VIX – volatility – dipping. But that doesn’t mean that the roller coaster ride is over. If recent indicators hold, expect more spikes and dips ahead, but it isn’t because the economy isn’t sound.
Take One – Data Driven U.S. Outlook in 2019 and MHVille
Propaganda works, but facts matter. In this take one on the 2019 outlook, we will focus on facts and evidence. There are talking heads on cable news, in print or digital mainstream news media, who for some months have ‘talked down’ the U.S. economic forecast.
Tonight, we’ll have two videos, one from CNBC and one from Fox Business, both sides of the left-right divide related on the same topic.
- GM CEO Mary Barra will meet with White House national economic advisor Larry Kudlow on Monday.
- The automaker announced Monday it will effectively halt production next year at five plants in North America.
- Kudlow has been cheering President Donald Trump’s administration for its economic policies.
Trump threatens GM over Ohio plans: ‘They better damn well open a new plant there’
- President Donald Trump tells The Wall Street Journal that he warned GM CEO Mary Barra that her company was “playing around with the wrong person.”
- Trump also says that he told Barra on Sunday night that GM should open a new plant in Ohio, saying, “They better damn well open a new plant there very quickly.”
- GM plans to cease operations at plants in Ohio, Michigan, Maryland and Ontario by next year — and to cut back production at two other plants, as well — and cut its work force by 15 percent.
