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 –
We’ve sounded off on the midterms for months, so tonight we’ll let CNBC’s video and bullet’s spotlight the night of the election. We’ll only note for now that both parties brought out their ‘biggest guns.’ Former president Barack Obama, former VP Joe Biden and a host of Hollywood personalities have stumped for or with Democrats. President Donald J. Trump and Vice President Mike Pence have been stumping for their candidates.
The results will soon be known.
“Congressional races in Indiana, Kentucky, Florida and Virginia will be among the first Wall Street is watching to see whether the electorate’s response to President Donald Trump’s programs is strong enough to launch either a “red wave” of support or a “blue wave” backlash.
The view of major firms such as Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley is for a mixed outcome, with Democrats gaining control of the House and Republicans holding or even adding to their majority in the Senate. The market reaction to that scenario could be muted, but not so if there’s an upset, with either party staging a surprise victory and gaining total control of Congress.
Stocks could rally if there’s a GOP surge — or red wave — and some strategists see a sharp decline if Democrats overcome the odds and take both the House and Senate.
Key early indicators of blue or red wave:
- Kentucky — polls start closing at 6 p.m. ET
- Indiana — polls start closing at 6 p.m. ET
- Virginia — polls close at 7 p.m. ET
- Florida — polls start closing at 7 p.m. ET”
