    Oil is being sold off already 64 with the Sunday open – speculators all long and China tariffs combined with OPEC nerves

    Good morning & HOLY TRADE WARS :woohoo: Do hope all fathers had a great day yesterday ๐Ÿ™‚ … Selling to start off the week — although a nice “cat bounce” has occurred off the lows … not all new initiatives will be done with a roaring success — but more “good” than “bad” is being done these days at least economically ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜†

    NAHB housing market index for June 68 vs. 70 expected, Prior 70

    index of current single family home sales 75 versus 76 in May
    index of prospective buyers 50 versus 51 in May
    index of home sales over next 6 months 76 versus 77 in May

    The NAHB cites lumber prices for dropping homebuilder sentiment Tariffs on lumber from Canada has added nearly $9000 the price of a new single-family home since January 2017. Lumber prices rose to a record in May

    Higher mortgage rates, the shortage of affordable price listings, and higher property values make purchases less attractive especially for 1st time buyers

    The index fell to 64 in the Midwest from 67
    In the south it dropped to 69 from 71
    In the North East it rose to 61 from 56
    West posted a rise to 76 from 75

    Note December 74.0 was an 18 year high
