This evening’s feature focus will be a report from the White House, some related information, coupled with a teaser regarding the Manufactured Housing Institute’s latest – almost humorous were it not so troubling – antics. For our growing number of new readers, all that and more will be found below our daily charts, left-right headline summary and other standard business nightly fare.
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
Tonight’s featured focus will have several components. Following this preface will be the latest report from the White House juxtaposed from an element below from last night’s market report focus.
The short version of that quote from Lai above is that if China and/or WHO or other NGOs had stepped up promptly, the United States and most of the world would not be going through this crisis, at least not this severely.
White House press room statement will be followed by the promised teaser about the latest from the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) Then, related information on this pandemic and how it is roiling the nation and manufactured housing. That said, let’s dive in.
Part I.
|
The latest from 1600 Pennsylvania Ave on the Coronavirus response President Trump and the White House Coronavirus Task Force announced additional actions today as part of the ongoing, government-wide response to the global pandemic: · To help American families and businesses, the Treasury Department announced that Tax Day will be moved from April 15 to July 15. No interest or penalties will be charged for filing during this extended window, but any American expecting refunds or credits may claim now to get their money sooner. |
President Trump announced new travel restrictions during a coronavirus task force press briefing at the White House. He also announced that interest payments on federal student loans will be suspended for 60 days.
Part II.
MHI has sent out a new message to their readers, which we will plan to unpack in the next few days, depending on how the news flow goes. The short version is that they’ve stuck to a familiar script from their purported playbook – posturing something that’s hot air. The specifics will be demonstrated in our report and analysis. Watch for it, because it arguably underscores how they’ve been playing the game – yes, even during a national crisis.
Finally, there is an in-depth Masthead report – The Party is Over, so, What’s Next? – that is tied to Bill Gates, Warren Buffett and their billionaire allies. As a reminder to all, but a notice to new readers, editorially MHProNews celebrates free market success. It is crony, vulture or corrupt practices that purportedly goes beyond the lines of law and ethics that should be of concern. Don’t miss this Masthead. It could well become a classic.
See that with the other ICYMI related reports. The red ink for most manufactured home industry tracked stocks today is shown on the graphic further below.
