Jul 27..10:00..New Home Sales..Jun..384K..352K..346K
OK what does all this mean? I'l explain. This is the figures released today for the sale of new homes for the month of June which was 384,000. Analysts expected the number to be 352,000 so actual number of sales were greater by 32,000 homes. new home sales for the month of May were 346,000 so actual sales of new homes rose by 38,000 homes. This is a very big improvement.
Look at the bottom chart in the link I provided esp at the months of inventory. Y/Y means Year over year ie comparing this period to the same period last year.
Bottom line: We are in recovery and despite what the naysayers flap their gums about IMO nothing can stop it.
